Lesser Royal Coat of Arms of Spain (Equatorial Guinea) Pint Glass Design

This design showcases a colonial-era adaptation of the Lesser Royal Coat of Arms of Spain, specifically the Pillars of Hercules variant, as it appeared during Spain's control of Equatorial Guinea. The artwork is rich with historical and symbolic elements, representing both Spanish royal power and the colony's connection to the Spanish Empire.

Central Shield

At the heart of the design is a shield, quartered to represent the historic kingdoms that formed Spain. It features a miniature or adapted representation of the standard Spanish royal arms: The upper left quarter displays the golden castle of Castile on a red field. The upper right quarter shows the purple lion of LeΓ³n on a silver field. The lower left quarter depicts the red and gold vertical stripes of Aragon. The lower right quarter features the gold chains of Navarre on a red field. At the bottom, a small pomegranate represents the Kingdom of Granada, conquered by Spain.

Overlaying this are the Bourbon-Anjou escutcheon, a small blue shield bearing three gold fleurs-de-lis, symbolizing the Bourbon dynasty that ruled Spain at the time.

Royal Crown and Pillars of Hercules

The shield is topped with the Spanish royal crown, symbolizing royal authority and sovereignty. Flanking the shield are the iconic Pillars of Hercules, two stylized columns. Each column is wrapped with a red scroll, inscribed with "PLUS ULTRA," a Latin phrase meaning "further beyond." This emphasizes Spain's global expansion, exploration, and the extent of its overseas empire.

Colonial Adaptation

This version, used in Spanish Guinea (now Equatorial Guinea), represents the colonial context. The incorporation of Spanish royal symbolism – the shield, the crown, and the Pillars of Hercules – signifies Spanish governance and influence within the colony. The design highlights the connection between the colony and the Spanish crown, cementing its place within the larger empire.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
