Kungliga Konsthögskolan Vapen Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of the Kungliga Konsthögskolan, the Royal Institute of Art in Sweden. The design is a direct translation of the Institute's coat of arms (vapen), adopted in 2020, and rendered in its designated color palette: red, silver, and black.

The Shield: A Canvas of Heritage

The primary element is the shield, a field of silver (argent). This forms the backdrop for the striking imagery that defines the Institute's identity.

The Emblematic Beasts

Central to the design are two animals, rendered in black (sable) and walking in a vertical line (in pale). At the top, a majestic lion, facing right, symbolizes strength and courage. Below, a wild boar, walking towards the viewer's left (sinister), represents resilience and perhaps the untamed spirit of artistic creation. Both animals are brought to life with red details, emphasizing their claws and tongues, known in heraldry as "armed," further emphasizing their inherent power.

Royal Crown

Crowning the shield is a royal crown. This feature speaks to the Institute's status and its ties to the Swedish monarchy, signifying the prestigious and academic character of the institution.

Color Palette and Legacy

The design adheres to the Institute's strict color palette: silver (represented by the glass itself), black, and red. This color harmony not only ensures a cohesive aesthetic but also pays homage to the institute's graphic design guidelines, creating a visually unified experience.

This shot glass encapsulates the visual essence of Kungliga Konsthögskolan's coat of arms, a symbol of artistic pursuit, academic excellence, and Swedish tradition.

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.
