Insigne Tanzaniae (Tanzania) Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the intricate artwork of the Insigne Tanzaniae, the Coat of Arms of the United Republic of Tanzania. The design is a vibrant representation of the country's rich heritage, natural resources, and national values, meticulously rendered to capture its symbolic significance.

The Shield (Escutcheon)

The central element of the design is the shield, divided into three distinct sections. The top golden portion signifies Tanzania's abundant mineral wealth. The middle red section embodies the nation's fertile lands and agricultural prowess. The lower section features blue and white wavy lines, representing the vast Indian Ocean, as well as Tanzania's numerous lakes and rivers. At the heart of the shield is a prominent golden torch, a powerful symbol of freedom, enlightenment, and the pursuit of knowledge.

Supporters and Crest

Flanking the shield are a man and a woman, depicted in traditional Tanzanian attire, symbolizing the unity and equality of all Tanzanian citizens. Above the shield, the crest incorporates a golden clove of maize, a spear, and an axe. These elements represent the importance of agriculture, defense, and the value of labor to the nation.

Base and Motto

The design is anchored by a green hill at the base, representing Tanzania's fertile lands. A scroll, prominently displayed, bears the national motto: "Uhuru na Umoja," which translates to "Freedom and Unity."

Symbolism

The overall artwork is rich with meaning. The golden torch underscores Tanzania's commitment to freedom, knowledge, and enlightenment. The strategic use of colors, including red, blue, gold, and green, represents the vital elements of the land, water, minerals, and agriculture. The figures of the man and woman stand for equality and unity. The spear and axe pay homage to the labor force and defense. The green hill reflects Tanzania's fertile lands. It all comes together to encapsulate the essence of Tanzania’s national identity.

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.
