HMS Koster Vapen (Sweden) Shot Glass - Design Overview

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms, or vapen, of the Swedish Navy's HMS Koster, a mine countermeasures vessel. The design embodies a clear maritime identity, perfect for a vessel of this type.

Visual Elements

The core of the design features a classic heraldic composition. The background is rendered in a vibrant blue ("azure"), providing a strong foundation for the central emblem.

At the heart of the design, the iconic Koster lighthouse is depicted. The lighthouse is presented in crisp silver ("argent"), with its lantern meticulously detailed in a radiant gold ("or").

Meaning and Symbolism

The Koster lighthouse is included to represent the Koster islands, from which the ship takes its name. The lighthouse is a beacon of safety and guidance, fitting for a vessel designed for mine clearance.

The heraldic use of blue, silver, and gold creates a clean and instantly recognizable visual identity. These colors are traditionally associated with maritime symbolism, representing the sea, purity, and value.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
