França Equinocial (Brazil) Coat of Arms Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases a captivating design inspired by the coat of arms proposed for França Equinocial, a short-lived French colony in early 17th-century Brazil (now Maranhão).

Design Elements & Symbolism

The central element of the design is a radiant golden sun, depicted "in its splendor" with both straight and wavy rays emanating outwards, and typically featuring a human face. This sun, rendered on a striking blue field, is a potent symbol. It represents the colony's location near the Equator, the "kingdom of the sun," where the sun was perceived to perpetually shine.

The coat of arms also frequently incorporates elements reminiscent of the French monarchy, signifying the connection between the colony and France. The association of these elements highlights the colony as an extension of French royal authority.

Heraldic Representation

The sun is presented on a shield, a common format for coats of arms. This configuration further emphasizes the colonial claim's regal association. This design pays homage to the historical context and the ephemeral nature of the colony's existence in early Brazil.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
