Giffers Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic emblem of Giffers, a municipality in the canton of Fribourg, Switzerland, a symbol steeped in history and medieval heritage.

Design Elements

The artwork faithfully reproduces the official coat of arms' intricate design. The shield is divided into four distinct quarters, arranged in a symmetrical pattern.

Color Palette and Pattern

The design utilizes a striking color palette of gold (Or) and red (Gules). The shield is "quarterly," meaning it is divided into four sections. The top-left and bottom-right quarters are rendered in a vibrant gold. The remaining two quarters, top-right and bottom-left, are a rich red.

Quatrefoil Motif

Central to the design is the quatrefoil motif, a four-leaf clover-like shape. These quatrefoils are "counterchanged," meaning they reverse the background color. Each gold quarter contains a red quatrefoil, and each red quarter displays a gold quatrefoil. This creates a balanced and visually appealing effect.

Symbolism and Meaning

The coat of arms symbolizes Giffers' historical identity and connection to the medieval noble family of Giffers. The design evokes a sense of tradition and nobility, representing the municipality's deep-rooted past and its association with the Altenryf Monastery, whose vassals the Giffers family were during the 12th century.

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.
