Markelo Coat of Arms Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms of Markelo, a former municipality in the Netherlands, officially granted in 1880. The design is a captivating representation of the region's rich history and unique character.

Quadrants of Significance

The coat of arms is meticulously divided into four distinct quadrants, each brimming with symbolic meaning:

  • Top-Left: A bold red field dominates the upper-left quadrant, emblazoned with a silver (white) bishop's mitre adorned with a vibrant red cross. This powerful imagery pays homage to the medieval influence of bishops in the region, highlighting their judicial authority and ecclesiastical significance.
  • Top-Right: The top-right quadrant presents a serene landscape: three verdant green trees arranged in a triangular formation, encircling a pristine silver (white) scroll. This evokes the Saxon tradition of conducting legal proceedings under the shade of trees, a pivotal practice in the area's early legal framework.
  • Bottom-Left: This quadrant showcases a verdant green mountain range, a visual depiction of the hilly and undulating terrain that defines the Markelo landscape.
  • Bottom-Right: Echoing the theme of historical significance, the bottom-right quadrant features another elegant silver (white) scroll, further emphasizing the connection to medieval legal practices and traditions of the region.

This intricate design, a registered emblem of Dutch heraldry, offers a compelling visual narrative, a snapshot of Markelo's rich past and its enduring legacy.

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.
