Mele-Stemma (Italy) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features the official coat of arms (stemma) of Mele, a municipality in the Metropolitan City of Genoa, Italy. The design is a vibrant and symbolic representation of the town's heritage and identity.

The Central Motif

At the heart of the design lies a natural wooden beehive, domed in shape, positioned prominently against a background of azure (blue). The beehive rests upon a green plain, representing the fertile land surrounding Mele and reflecting its agricultural roots.

Bees in Flight

Seven golden bees with outstretched wings surround the beehive, adding movement and visual interest. Five bees are arranged in a semicircle around the hive, while the remaining two are strategically placed, one directly in front and the other in the upper corner of the shield. This intricate arrangement highlights the significance of beekeeping in the town's history and economy.

The Inscription

A silver ribbon gracefully arcs across the top of the design, bearing the Latin inscription "Ex melle mihi nomen" in elegant black lettering. This phrase, which translates to "From honey comes my name," perfectly encapsulates the town's deep-seated connection to honey production and further emphasizes its unique identity.

Overall Composition

The coat of arms is a harmonious blend of colors and symbols. The azure background provides a striking contrast to the warm tones of the beehive and bees, while the green plain grounds the design and reinforces the connection to the land. The carefully considered arrangement of elements makes this shot glass a beautiful emblem of Mele's rich heritage.

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.
