HMS Hector (Sweden) Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

Visual Overview

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms, or "vapen," of HMS Hector, a tugboat serving in the Swedish Navy. The design is a classic heraldic representation, dominated by a stark contrast of colors and symbolic elements.

The Shield

The central element of the design is the shield. It presents a simple yet powerful image: a silver (argent) field upon which rests a black ancient Greek helmet. The helmet is adorned with a striking red plume, adding a vibrant focal point to the composition. This juxtaposition of colors creates a visually arresting effect.

Symbolism and Meaning

The primary symbol within the coat of arms is the Greek helmet. It is traditionally associated with strength, defense, and the martial spirit. While the exact meaning can vary depending on context, the inclusion of the helmet suggests a focus on the vessel's role in naval operations. The red plume further enhances the helmet’s visual impact and conveys a sense of regality.

Royal Crown

Crowning the shield is the royal crown, a symbol of sovereign authority and connection to the Swedish Navy. This adds a further layer of prestige and underscores the ship's allegiance and service to the Swedish Crown.

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.
