Hemiksem Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms of Hemiksem, a municipality in the Belgian province of Antwerp. The design is a vibrant representation of Hemiksem's rich heritage, rendered in a classic heraldic style.

Visual Elements

The central design is dominated by a shield divided horizontally, echoing the key elements of the Hemiksem coat of arms. A striking azure (blue) background forms the base, evoking the waters of the Scheldt River that flows through the town.

A prominent wavy silver (argent) band, mimicking the flow of the river, bisects the shield. This wave design adds a dynamic element to the heraldry.

Three black (sable) merlettes (birds without beaks or feet) are elegantly placed along the silver band. These birds are a nod to the Cistercian Order and the town's historical connection with St. Bernard's Abbey.

Two red (gules) horizontal bars complete the composition, situated above and below the wavy band. They may symbolize historical connections or local families of significance to Hemiksem.

Symbolism

Each element of the design carries symbolic meaning. The azure background serves to represent the Scheldt River. The wavy silver band further reinforces this link, symbolizing the river itself.

The merlettes represent the influence of the Cistercian monks, offering a direct link to the town’s religious and historical roots. The red bars potentially symbolize historical connections or families connected to the town.

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.
