Kuopio Vaakuna (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the iconic coat of arms (vaakuna) of Kuopio, Finland. The design is a miniature representation of the city's rich history and symbolic identity.

Design Elements

The shield design is divided horizontally (per fess) into two distinct fields. The upper field is black (sable), providing a dramatic backdrop for the gold elements. The lower field is silver/white (argent), offering a contrasting base for the red church.

Upper Field: Bow and Crown

Dominating the upper black field is a gold (or) upright bow, drawn and ready. The arrow, with its silver (argent) tip and fletching, hints at the region's connection to strength and heritage. Above the bow sits a gold (or) crown, symbolizing authority and civic status.

Lower Field: Kuopio Cathedral

The lower silver field features a single-towered red (gules) church, representing the Kuopio Cathedral. Its doors and windows are rendered in black, providing contrast and detail, and reminding us of the city's enduring history and its focal point of a prominent landmark.

Symbolism and Meaning

The bow is a traditional symbol, deeply rooted in the Savonia (Savo) region, where Kuopio is located. The crown, in turn, may represent the city’s status or authority. The depiction of the cathedral highlights a vital part of the city’s identity.

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.
