Massimino Italia - Stemma (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the intricate coat of arms, or "stemma," of Massimino, a comune in the province of Savona, Liguria, Italy. The design is rich with heraldic symbolism, offering a visual narrative of the town's history and its connection to larger European ideals.

Central Elements

The centerpiece of the design is a silver (argent) castle, rendered with meticulous detail. The castle features black (sable) masonry, a closed door and window above the gate, and two towers each adorned with four battlements in the "guelfa" style. This imposing structure symbolizes strength, protection, and the historical presence of the town.

Chief and Surrounding Details

Above the castle, a small gold (or) shield, known as the "scudetto," bears five red bands. This is the emblem of the Del Carretto Marquisate, acknowledging the historical feudal control of the area and adding a layer of aristocratic heritage. Surrounding the castle and scudetto is a circle of twelve gold (or) five-pointed stars. These stars evoke the symbolism of the European Union, representing Massimino's integration within a broader European identity.

Motto and External Ornamentation

Beneath the shield, a blue scroll displays the motto, "MAXIMINUS OPEROSUS," in black uppercase letters. This motto, meaning "Industrious Massimino," speaks to the character of the community. The overall design is framed with the traditional external ornamentation of a municipality, which may include a civic crown and laurel branches, consistent with Italian heraldic customs.

The design of this shot glass is a testament to Massimino's heritage, meticulously capturing the essence of its coat of arms, and making it an attractive design for someone who appreciates the history, symbols, and artistic expression of heraldry.

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.
