MediciCoAplaceholder (Italy) Shot Glass: Design Overview

This shot glass showcases a striking design derived from the iconic Stemma dei Medici, the coat of arms of the influential Medici family of Florence. The artwork centers on the distinctive heraldic shield, the core element of the Medici visual identity.

The Shield: A Symbol of Power

Dominating the design is the shield, rendered in its traditional form. A vibrant red (gules) background provides the canvas for the instantly recognizable emblem: six golden balls (palle) arranged in a vertical pattern. This arrangement, a testament to the family's legacy, instantly conveys the heritage of the Medici dynasty. The presence of these balls, potentially representing the family's banking roots or, according to other legends, pills, is central to the symbolism.

Ornamentation: Embellishing the Legacy

The design may incorporate decorative elements that traditionally accompany the Medici coat of arms, such as mantling or laurel branches. These additional touches serve to amplify the sense of nobility and historical significance, further solidifying the connection to the Medici's cultural and political dominance.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
