Åland flag proposal 2 (Finland) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A flat-vector Nordic cross in blue and yellow on a white field, one of the rejected designs for the Åland Islands flag.

Visual Elements & Composition

White covers about half of the rectangular layout, giving the design an open, airy ground. Blue and yellow share the rest, forming the Nordic cross that is the central figure. The cross is the only motif, and the pairing of its two colours against the white creates a clean, high-contrast layout.

Meaning & Symbolism

This proposal was one of several designs put forward between 1952 and 1954 to give the Åland Islands their own flag. The blue and yellow speak to the Swedish cultural and linguistic identity of the islands, while the Nordic cross acknowledges their political place within Finland. The proposal was never adopted. The official flag, with a red cross, was approved on 15 May 1954.

Set on a Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the Nordic cross reads as a single compact emblem as the glass is lifted. The white field gives the blue and yellow room to stand out, and the simple layout suits the curved surface of the glass.

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.
