HMS Pelikanen Vapen (Sweden) Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms ("vapen") of the Swedish Navy's HMS Pelikanen. The design is a vibrant and symbolic representation of the vessel and its mission.

Visual Elements

The central design element is a heraldic shield with a rich blue background, providing a striking canvas for the other components. Dominating the field is a silver (white) pelican, its form carefully rendered to capture its characteristic silhouette.

The pelican's beak and legs are rendered in gold (yellow), a detail known as "beväring" in heraldic terms. This touch of gold provides a subtle but elegant contrast, emphasizing the bird's important features.

Beneath the pelican is a gold torpedo, positioned diagonally. This strategic placement, known as "balks­vis," adds a dynamic element to the design, visually representing the ship's primary role as a torpedo- and missile-recovery vessel.

The shield itself is topped with a royal crown. This symbol signifies the ship's affiliation with the Swedish Navy and its connection to the Swedish state.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design elements of the coat of arms are laden with significance. The pelican, the ship's namesake, is the most obvious reference. Its presence directly reflects the vessel's identity: HMS Pelikanen, "the Pelican."

The inclusion of the torpedo is a direct visual link to the ship's function. It is a visual shorthand, clearly communicating the Pelikanen's vital role in recovering torpedoes and missiles.

The royal crown further anchors the design within its context, providing a clear indication of its naval identity and association with the Swedish Armed Forces.

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.
