Gyoji (Japan) Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass celebrates the powerful symbolism of the Japanese Emperor's Privy Seal, also known as 御璽 (Gyōji). The design focuses on the visual representation of imperial authority and legitimacy.

The Imperial Seal: A Golden Square

The central element of the design is a stylized representation of the Gyōji itself. This is not a "coat of arms" in the traditional sense, but rather a representation of the Emperor’s official seal used to authenticate important documents. It appears as a golden square, mirroring the physical form of the actual seal made of pure gold.

Ancient Calligraphy: The Essence of Authority

Emblazoned upon the golden square is the inscription "天皇御璽" (Ten'nō Gyōji), written in elegant, ancient seal-script (篆書 / tensho). This calligraphy represents "Emperor's Seal" and is a powerful symbol of the Emperor's authority. The style of the characters evokes a sense of history, tradition, and gravitas.

A Symbol of Authenticity and Power

The overall design captures the essence of the Gyōji. It visually translates the weight of the Emperor's power and the authenticity associated with the seal. The simplicity of the design, using gold and clean lines, reflects the reverence and importance of the Imperial Seal within Japanese culture.

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.
