Greater Coat of Arms of Charles V Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases a highly detailed and intricate design, mirroring the Greater Coat of Arms of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain (Charles I). The design is a visual testament to his vast rule and the complex political landscape of 16th-century Europe.

Central Shield and Regional Representation

The core of the artwork is a complex quarterly shield. The first quarter features the castle of Castile, the second displays the lion of León. The third quarter showcases the stripes of Aragon, and the fourth quarter bears the eagle of Sicily. At the bottom, a smaller inescutcheon presents the pomegranate, representing Granada. The inclusion of these elements highlights Charles V's control over the diverse regions of Spain, reflecting his role as King.

Habsburg Heritage and Imperial Authority

Central to the design is the presence of Habsburg and Holy Roman Empire symbols. The dominant feature is the black double-headed eagle, often positioned behind or supporting the shield. This powerful symbol, crowned with an imperial crown, firmly establishes Charles V's authority as Holy Roman Emperor. The chains of the Order of the Golden Fleece, a prestigious Spanish Habsburg honor, gracefully encircle the shield.

Supporters, Mantling, and Symbolic Depth

The design may incorporate heraldic supporters, such as lions or griffins, adding to the visual grandeur and symbolism of power. Decorative flourishes and mantling further enhance the aesthetic appeal. The overall composition is a rich tapestry of heraldic elements, meticulously arranged to convey the scope of Charles V's dominion and the union of Spanish and Germanic heraldry under the Habsburg dynasty.

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.
