Kriminalvården Coat of Arms Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the official coat of arms (vapen) of the Swedish Prison and Probation Service, Kriminalvården, a striking emblem steeped in heraldic tradition.

Design Elements

The central element is a blue (azure) shield, upon which two crossed key-shafts are prominently displayed. One key is rendered in gleaming gold, the other in silver. A notable detail is the silver key, which is positioned upside down.

Crowning the shield is a royal crown, a clear indication of the Kriminalvården's status as a national government authority.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design is rich with symbolism. The keys, a traditional emblem of authority, guardianship, and control, aptly reflect the service's role in custody and rehabilitation. The use of gold and silver in the keys likely represents a balance within the service. Gold might signify aspects like security, while silver could allude to care and rehabilitation, though a definitive explanation is not publicly stated.

The blue field of the shield is a heraldic representation of loyalty, truth, and justice, all core values associated with the justice system. The royal crown emphasizes the connection to the Swedish state and the authority of the Crown.

The design, updated in 2025 with more vivid color tones and a greater emphasis on the shield and keys, offers a concise representation of the Swedish Prison and Probation Service's mission and values.

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.
