Koog aan de Zaan Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms, or "wapen," of Koog aan de Zaan, a former municipality in the Netherlands. The design is a visual representation of the area's rich history and heraldic traditions.

Divided Shield

The design features a shield, which is divided horizontally into two distinct sections. This "midden door gesneden" (divided through the middle) arrangement is a fundamental element of the heraldic design.

Upper Half: Red Field and Silver Lions

The upper portion of the shield presents a striking visual contrast. A red field, known as "keel" in heraldry, provides the background. On this vibrant field, two silver lions, known as "geaffronteerde leeuwen" (facing each other), are prominently displayed. The opposing lions symbolize strength and power.

Lower Half: Silver Field and Red Lions

The lower half of the shield presents another contrast. A silver or white field, known as "argent" in heraldry, forms the base. Like the upper half, this section also features two lions, but this time they are rendered in red, mirroring the color of the upper field. These opposing lions reinforce the theme of strength and authority.

Historical Significance

The entire design reflects the historical identity of Koog aan de Zaan. It is derived from the arms of the Banne van Westzaen, a significant local jurisdiction. Though Koog aan de Zaan is no longer an independent municipality, this coat of arms continues to symbolize its heritage.

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.
