Gullspång Vapen (Sweden) Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Gullspång Municipality, a testament to its rich history and unique local identity. The design, originating from 1934 and officially registered in 1989, features a striking and symbolic composition.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central figure is a vibrant golden salmon, captured in a dynamic leap across a field of deep blue. Above the salmon, a narrow, golden bar arches gracefully, and below, a golden crown adds a touch of regality. This carefully balanced arrangement creates a visually appealing and meaningful emblem.

Symbolism and Representation

The leaping salmon is the most prominent element, representing the renowned Gullspång salmon (Gullspångslax), a prized fish native to the Gullspång River. This signifies the municipality's connection to its natural environment and heritage.

The raised bar, positioned above the salmon, is a visual representation of the "Golden Bridge" (gyllene spången) over the Gullspång River, a significant feature in local folklore. This adds another layer of local history and storytelling to the design.

The golden crown, nestled beneath the salmon, commemorates the Battle of Hova in 1275, a pivotal moment in Swedish history where King Magnus Ladulås captured the crown of his brother, King Valdemar. This element injects a powerful element of royal history and heritage into the design. The entire composition is a colorful and compelling celebration of Gullspång's identity.

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.
