HMS Astrea Vapen Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms (vapen) of the Swedish Navy torpedo boat, HMS Astrea. The design is a vibrant and symbolic representation of the vessel and its heritage.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central element is a heraldic shield, featuring a classic design. The field of the shield is rendered in a radiant gold (yellow), providing a strong base for the design. A diagonal band, known as a "bend," traverses the shield. This band is colored in a striking blue (azure), creating a bold contrast with the gold background.

The focal point of the design rests upon the blue "bend." A single, gleaming gold star is placed directly on this band. The star's radiant appearance offers a focal point, drawing the eye and adding to the overall visual appeal. Above the shield, the design is topped with the regal representation of the royal crown.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design elements of the HMS Astrea coat of arms carry distinct symbolic meanings. The gold star, central to the design, is a direct reference to the ship's name, "Astrea" (or Astraea). In mythology, Astraea is associated with a star. The star’s placement and color emphasize this connection.

The colors, gold and blue, are common in Swedish naval heraldry. The royal crown, prominently displayed, signifies the vessel's status as a part of the Swedish Navy, a military entity under the authority of the Swedish crown. Together, these elements present a compelling design that conveys the heritage, history, and symbolism of the HMS Astrea.

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.
