Herent Wapen (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the intricate and historically rich design of the Herent wapen, the official coat of arms of the municipality of Herent in Belgium. The design, meticulously quartered, tells a visual story of the area's history through the symbolic representations of its component municipalities.

The Quartered Shield

The design is divided into four distinct sections, each representing a part of Herent: Herent proper, Winksele, Veltem, and Beisem. This creates a visually balanced composition, and the use of bold colors and symbols provides a striking aesthetic.

First Quarter: Virgin Mary and Child

The top-left quarter features a serene image of the Virgin Mary, crowned and haloed, holding the Child Jesus in her left arm and a lily in her right hand. This significant image, rendered in gold against a blue (lazuur) background, stems from medieval seals, connecting the present-day municipality to its rich historical and religious roots.

Second Quarter: Lion and the Letter "W"

The top-right quadrant displays a golden lion rampant (standing up), with red claws and tongue, on a black (sabel) field. In the lower right corner, a gold letter "W" is emblazoned, signifying Winksele. The lion, a classic heraldic symbol, embodies strength and nobility.

Third Quarter: The Second Lion

The bottom-left quarter features another golden lion rampant against a black background. This lion, identical to the one in the second quarter (without the "W"), represents Veltem, further reinforcing the historical connections between the municipalities.

Fourth Quarter: Fleur-de-Lis

The bottom-right section displays a white (zilver) background. A "chief ingehoekt" (top section) in blue features three gold fleur-de-lis. The fleur-de-lis represents historical connections and signifies Veltem-Beisem, completing the visual narrative of Herent's coat of arms.

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.
