Kärnten Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

Visual Representation

This shot glass showcases the official coat of arms of Carinthia (Kärnten), an Austrian state. The design is a miniature heraldic masterpiece, mirroring the “small” shield version typically used for official purposes.

Shield Details

The shield itself is divided vertically, a technique known as "per pale." The left side presents a vibrant gold (yellow) field adorned with three black lions, positioned one above the other in a walking (passant), right-facing pose. These lions are distinguished by their red claws and tongues, a detail referred to as "armed and langued."

The right side of the shield offers a striking contrast, featuring a solid red background crossed by a horizontal silver (white) bar. This "fess" element adds a touch of simplicity and elegance to the overall composition.

Symbolism and Historical Context

The coat of arms is steeped in history. The three lions on the left are a nod to the "Mödlinger line" of the Babenberg dynasty, who once ruled the region. The red and silver bar on the right, also known as the "Bindenschild", originates from the heraldry of the Austrian dynasty, representing a connection to the broader Austrian heritage.

This design is a direct representation of Carinthia's identity and its historical roots, capturing the essence of the region's unique past and present.

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.
