Greater Coat of Arms of Dunkerque 1919 Shot Glass Design

This striking shot glass showcases the Greater Coat of Arms of Dunkerque, France, as it appeared in 1919, a testament to the city's valor and history.

The Shield

The shield, the heart of the design, is bisected horizontally. The upper section, known as the "chef," presents a golden field, "or," emblazoned with a proud black lion passant, or "walking," sable. This lion pays homage to Dunkerque's Flemish heritage.

The lower portion, the "pointe," features a silver, or "argent," background. A graceful blue dolphin, or "azure," reclines within this space, its crest and ear detailed in red, or "gueules," a powerful symbol of Dunkerque’s maritime tradition and its significance as a port city.

Honors and Recognition

The coat of arms is further distinguished by the inclusion of the city's wartime honors. Awarded in 1919, the Knight of the LĂ©gion d’Honneur and the Distinguished Service Cross (presumably the U.S. version) are both prominently displayed. Additionally, the Croix de Guerre with Palms is included, reflecting awards from 1917 and 1945.

Mottoes and Significance

A flowing ribbon carries the motto, "Dunkerque a bien mĂ©ritĂ© de la Patrie" ("Dunkirk has well deserved of the Fatherland"), awarded after the 1793 siege. Beneath, the inscription "Ville hĂ©roĂŻque, sert d’exemple Ă  toute la Nation" ("Heroic city, sets an example for the whole nation"), granted in 1917 during World War I, reinforces the city's heroic spirit.

The design as a whole represents Dunkerque's history, its heritage, its valor in the face of conflict, and the enduring importance of its maritime traditions.

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.
