H.Nicolaas Amsterdam Coat of Arms Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the official Coat of Arms of the Basilica of Saint Nicholas (Basiliek van de H. Nicolaas) in Amsterdam, a design rich in historical and symbolic meaning.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The central element of this artwork is the imperial crown of Maximilian I. This crown represents the Holy Roman Emperor's grant of Amsterdam's Coat of Arms in 1489, a testament to the city's historical significance.

Flanking the crown are three golden coins. These coins pay homage to a renowned legend of Saint Nicholas, the basilica's namesake and the patron saint of Amsterdam. The story tells of Saint Nicholas providing dowries for three impoverished sisters by secretly gifting them gold coins, preventing their enslavement. The presence of these coins emphasizes the basilica's dedication to Saint Nicholas and his generosity.

The overall composition of the coat of arms beautifully integrates symbols associated with both the patron saint and the city itself. It's a visual celebration of Amsterdam's heritage and the deep connection between its religious and civic identities.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
