Historic Coat of Arms of San Juan, Puerto Rico: Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms granted to San Juan, Puerto Rico, during Spanish rule, a design rich in symbolism and historical significance.

The Shield's Imagery

The central element is a green shield, representing virtues like hope and loyalty. At the heart of the shield, a silver (white) lamb stands upon a red book. This lamb holds a banner bearing a cross, a direct reference to St. John the Baptist, the city's namesake. Beneath the lamb and book, an island or rock is depicted, with a spring or flowing water, symbolizing Puerto Rico's island nature.

The Border's Embellishments

The shield is framed by a border filled with intricate details. Castles and lions, drawn from the heraldry of the Kingdoms of Castile and León, symbolize the Spanish Crown's influence. Also included are flags and Jerusalem crosses, further enriching the religious and royal symbolism. The initials "F" and "Y" are present, a nod to the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella, who granted the arms.

The Royal Crown and Motto

A royal crown surmounts the shield, signifying the authority of the Spanish Crown. The design is complemented by the Latin motto "Joannes Est Nomen Ejus", meaning "John is his name," and further emphasizing the religious connection to St. John. Another version of the motto may be included as well.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design as a whole is imbued with powerful meaning. The lamb is the "Agnus Dei," a powerful Christian symbol connecting San Juan to St. John the Baptist. The mottos and royal symbols express San Juan’s loyalty and fidelity to the Spanish Crown. The crown and initials of the monarchs further highlight the city's royal ties, and the island/water imagery represents Puerto Rico's geographical identity.

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.
