Henry Kellett's Sledge Flag (Ireland) Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass features a compelling design inspired by the historic "sledge flag" of Sir Henry Kellett, a symbol of 19th-century Arctic exploration and Irish heritage.

Artwork Elements

The design prominently showcases a rich green field, mirroring the silk of the original flag. Embroidered upon this field is a striking golden Irish harp, a bold statement of Kellett's Irish ancestry.

A smaller element, the Union Flag, is incorporated into the design, reflecting Kellett's affiliation with the British Royal Navy and the era's naval exploration efforts.

Completing the design is the Latin motto "Auxilium ab Alto," translating to "Help From Above." This inscription emphasizes the spirit of exploration and the challenges faced by Kellett and his team.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design of the shot glass pays homage to a significant piece of history. The elements combine to represent a blend of Irish identity, British naval service, and the adventurous spirit of Arctic exploration. The flag, and by extension, this design, links Irish heritage to the legendary quest for the Northwest Passage and the search for the Franklin expedition.

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.
