Magdalene College Shield Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Magdalene College, Cambridge, a visual embodiment of its rich history and academic traditions. The design is a miniature representation of the college's official shield, offering a glimpse into its heraldic heritage.

A Divided Heritage

The shield is bisected, divided horizontally into two primary fields: a vibrant red (gules) and a pristine white (argent). This color division sets the stage for the primary design elements, creating a striking contrast that is both visually appealing and symbolically significant.

The Saltire: A Foundation of Faith

At the heart of the design lies a counterchanged saltire, a distinctive X-shaped cross. This diagonal cross appears to switch colors depending on the background. Where it sits on the red field it is a pristine white, while a red element appears on the white background. This pattern highlights the college's religious origins and connection to the Christian faith, reminiscent of Saint Andrew.

The Lion: Symbol of Strength and Vigilance

Overlapping the center of the saltire is a smaller shield, an escutcheon. This central element features a gold background (Or) that bears a walking red lion (lion passant guardant). The lion, a classic symbol of bravery, strength, and vigilance, faces forward, conveying a sense of watchfulness and fortitude.

A Visual Legacy

The overall design, meticulously rendered, captures the essence of Magdalene College's heraldic emblem. The colors and shapes combine to create a miniature work of art, telling a story of faith, courage, and academic standing, all within a small and captivating design.

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.
