Holsbeek Coat of Arms Shot Glass - Design Overview

Celebrate the rich heritage of Holsbeek, a municipality in Flemish Brabant, Belgium, with this intricately designed shot glass. The design showcases the official coat of arms (wapen) of Holsbeek, a symbol of unity and history, presented in a "quartered" shield format.

Detailed Design Elements

The shield is divided into four distinct sections, each representing a crucial part of Holsbeek's past:

  • First Quarter (Top Left): A vibrant blue (azure) background frames a golden depiction of the crowned Virgin Mary cradling the Child Jesus. In her right hand, she holds a scepter topped with a six-pointed star, and she's flanked by two small crosses, all in gold. This quarter honors Holsbeek's deep devotion to Mary, the municipality's patron saint, and is derived from original seals dating back to 1351.
  • Second Quarter (Top Right): A bold red (gules) field features a golden rendering of Saint Peter, identifiable by his key in his right hand, a book in his left, and a bishop’s staff beside him. This section represents Sint-Pieters-Rode, a significant sub-municipality within Holsbeek.
  • Third Quarter (Bottom Left): Set against a red background, this quarter showcases three golden fleurs-de-lis, arranged with two on top and one below. This imagery is derived from Nieuwrode, another key part of the municipality.
  • Fourth Quarter (Bottom Right): On a blue field, Saint Martin is depicted on horseback, sharing his cloak with a beggar, all rendered in gold. This section symbolizes Kortrijk-Dutsel, with Saint Martin as its patron saint. Additionally, there’s a small inescutcheon, a shield within the main one, featuring a green (sinopel) background with three silver rings, topped by a gold chief with three red pales, further representing the area's significance.

The coat of arms, granted in 1988, beautifully encapsulates the municipality's history, symbolizing the union of its former villages, each with its own patron saint and symbolic meaning, into one cohesive entity.

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.
