HMS Skaftö Vapen (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the striking coat of arms (vapen) of the Swedish Navy ship HMS Skaftö. The design is a vibrant display of heraldic artistry, rich with symbolic meaning.

Visual Elements and Representation

The primary element is a deep blue (azure) shield, forming the backdrop for the central design. This color is commonly associated with naval heraldry, setting the maritime context.

Across the blue field, two prominent gold (or) spear-shafts are laid diagonally, establishing a dynamic visual flow. These are joined by a third spear, also gold-shafted, that emerges with a diagonal trajectory, its point distinguished by a gleaming silver (argent) tip. This arrangement of spears is a direct visual pun (canting) on the ship's name, "Skaftö," where "skaft" means "shaft" (of a spear).

Meaning and Symbolism

The design's symbolism is multi-layered. The gold spear-shafts, associated with value and nobility, signify honor. The silver spear tip calls attention to the weapon itself, making it a prominent feature of the design. These elements, combined with the name-related visual pun, create a powerful visual identity for HMS Skaftö.

Crowning the entire design is the Swedish Royal crown, firmly establishing the ship's connection to the Swedish Royal Navy and underlining its allegiance.

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.
