Helsinki.vaakuna (Finland) Shot Glass - Design Description

A Symbol of Helsinki's Identity

This shot glass features the iconic Helsinki coat of arms, a powerful symbol of the city's rich history and maritime heritage. The design is a miniature representation of the official heraldic emblem of Helsinki, Finland.

Azure Waters and Fortress Walls

The primary visual element is a striking medieval castle or fortress, rendered in vibrant red. This strong central motif sits upon a field of Azure, a deep blue color, representing the vast Baltic Sea that embraces Helsinki. Sometimes, silver waves are subtly depicted below the castle to further emphasize the maritime connection.

Royal Heritage and Historical Ties

Atop the fortress, a golden crown proudly sits, a key element of the "yläkruunullinen" (crown-bearing) version of the coat of arms. The crown signifies Helsinki’s historical ties to the Swedish monarchy, adding a touch of regal elegance to the overall design.

Symbolism in Miniature

Every element is imbued with symbolic meaning. The castle represents Helsinki's historical role as a fortified city and defense. The blue backdrop reflects the city's strong connection to the sea. This shot glass design encapsulates the essence of Helsinki's past, present, and maritime spirit, making it a fitting tribute to Finland's capital.

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.
