Kungliga Civilförsvarsstyrelsen Vapen Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms of the Kungliga Civilförsvarsstyrelsen, the former Swedish Civil Defence Board. The design is a striking example of heraldic tradition, instantly recognizable and rich in symbolic meaning.

The Shield: Azure and Argent

The primary visual element is a blue shield, a color known in heraldry as "azure." This deep blue provides the backdrop for the central emblem, creating a sense of depth and contrast. Across this blue field, a prominent white or silver saltire takes center stage.

The Saltire: St. Andrew's Cross

The defining feature of the design is the saltire, an "X"-shaped cross also known as St. Andrew's cross. Rendered in white or silver ("argent" in heraldic terms), it is a classic heraldic charge. This form represents protection and service, essential themes related to civil defense. The choice of silver against the blue further enhances the contrast, drawing the eye and emphasizing the central cross.

The Crown: Royal Authority

Crowning the shield is a stylized Swedish royal crown. The inclusion of the royal crown signifies the agency's connection to the Swedish government and the authority vested in the Civil Defence Board. It represents order, sovereignty, and the protection of the people, tying the symbolic elements together.

Overall Impression

The overall impression is one of clarity, strength, and authority. The design, with its simple yet powerful elements, offers a visual representation of the Civil Defence Board's function and its vital role within Swedish society. It is a striking and memorable emblem, deeply rooted in tradition and meaning.

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.
