Garter Banner of the Japanese Emperor Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases a miniature representation of the Garter Banner of the Japanese Emperor, a powerful symbol of international diplomacy and royal distinction.

Design Elements

The primary visual element is a vibrant red field, mirroring the color of the ceremonial flag. At its heart, the design proudly displays the 16-petaled chrysanthemum, or kikumon, in its classic form. This emblem, the Imperial Seal of Japan, is central to the design, signifying the Emperor's position and the authority of the Japanese monarchy.

Symbolism

Encircling the chrysanthemum is the distinctive blue ribbon of the Order of the Garter. This ribbon features the order's motto, "Honi soit qui mal y pense," a Latin phrase that translates to "Shame be to him who thinks evil of it." This design feature underlines the Emperor's knighthood within the prestigious British Order of Chivalry.

The design adheres to the heraldic traditions of the Order, where foreign knights' banners incorporate their national symbols within the Garter. This shot glass design thus serves as a compact representation of the historical ties between Japan and the United Kingdom, and the Emperor's place within the international community.

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.
