Greater Coat of Arms of Charles I of Spain / Charles V Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the magnificent Greater Coat of Arms of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor from 1530 to 1556, a heraldic testament to the vast and diverse territories under his rule.

A Heraldic Tapestry

The central design is dominated by the intricate quartered shield. The first quarter displays the combined arms of Castile and León, representing Spain, alongside the heraldry of Aragon and Sicily. These arms, augmented by those of Jerusalem, Naples, and Navarre after 1520, symbolize Charles V's dominion over these key territories.

The second quarter, a dynamic representation of his Austrian and Burgundian heritage, features the quartered arms of Austria, the Duchy of Burgundy, the House of Valois-Burgundy, and the Duchy of Brabant. Within this quarter, an escutcheon displays the arms of Flanders and Tyrol, further illustrating the intricate familial ties that forged his empire.

The third and fourth quarters, filled with the quartered arms of Burgundy and Flanders, again echo his lineage, with an escutcheon showcasing the County of Tyrol, and the County of Flanders respectively.

Imperial Emblems and Symbols of Conquest

At the base of the shield, the Granada pomegranate stands out, a vivid symbol of the Kingdom of Granada's conquest. This detail adds a layer of historical narrative to the design, celebrating a pivotal moment in Spanish history.

The shield is crowned by the majestic Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire, a potent emblem of Charles V's imperial authority. The Imperial Eagle, with its wings spread, supports the shield, adding another layer of imperial grandeur.

Surrounding the shield is the Collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece, a prestigious order of chivalry. Flanking the shield, the Pillars of Hercules with the motto "PLUS ULTRA" ("More Beyond"), further symbolize Spain's ambition and expansion into the wider world, a design element perfectly embodying the spirit of exploration and ambition of Charles V's reign.

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.
