Hooglede Wapens Shot Glass: A Miniature of History

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of Hooglede, a municipality in West Flanders, Belgium. The design faithfully recreates the town's coat of arms, a symbol rich in history and religious significance.

The Azure Shield and Golden Saint

The central design is dominated by a vibrant blue (azure) shield, the backdrop for a striking figure. At its heart stands Saint Quirinus, rendered in brilliant gold (or). He is depicted holding a smaller, oval shield, also in gold, within the embrace of the larger azure shield.

The Nine Roundels: A Sign of Pilgrimage

The smaller golden shield held by Saint Quirinus is charged with a captivating pattern. Nine roundels, small circles of the same azure blue as the main shield, are arranged upon it. One roundel occupies the center, surrounded by eight others, a design deeply connected to the Saint himself.

Symbolism and Meaning

The presence of Saint Quirinus pays homage to his relics, which are preserved in Hooglede's St. Amandus church. The town's historical significance as a pilgrimage site is subtly conveyed through this image. The nine blue roundels mirror the design found in the arms of Saint-Quirin (France), another location associated with the Saint, tying the design to the saint's legacy.

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.
