Gais, Italy Coat of Arms Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the officially adopted coat of arms of Gais, a municipality in the autonomous province of Bolzano, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy. The design is a visual representation of the town's history and heritage, meticulously crafted according to heraldic principles.

The Shield: A Divided Field

The shield itself is divided, or "parted," vertically into two distinct sections. This division allows for the inclusion of multiple symbolic elements, telling a more comprehensive story of Gais.

First Field: Gold and the Eagle of St. John

The first field is a radiant golden color. Dominating this section is a majestic black eagle, rendered with meticulous detail. The eagle is crowned with gold and, uniquely, features a golden halo. This signifies St. John the Evangelist, the patron saint of the Gais parish. The eagle and halo are potent symbols of faith and protection.

Second Field: Azure and the Golden Band

The second field presents a vibrant blue background, described as "azure" in heraldic terms. Across this field runs a horizontal band, or "fascia," colored gold. This elegant band represents the historical castles of Kehlburg and Neuhaus. These castles, once strategic defenses for the Val di Tures, were owned by the Prince-Bishop of Bressanone during the Middle Ages.

Overall Meaning

Together, the elements of the coat of arms communicate a rich narrative. The eagle honors the town's patron saint, while the golden band on the azure field celebrates the region's historical castles and strategic past. This elegant and symbolic design is a testament to the enduring heritage of Gais.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
