Middle Coat of Arms of Charles V Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the intricate Middle Coat of Arms of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, also known as Charles I of Spain. The design is a miniature representation of a vast European empire, a symbol of power and dominion crafted for a personalized, functional item.

The Imperial Eagle and Inescutcheon

The central element is a golden (Or) field featuring a majestic black double-headed eagle, the very emblem of the Holy Roman Empire, taking precedence on the glass. At the eagle's heart lies the escutcheon, a smaller shield intricately quartered. The quarterings are a visual testament to Charles's inherited territories. The first quarter displays the arms of Castile and León, the second of Aragon and Sicily, the third Austria, and the fourth Burgundy. Nestled within this escutcheon are shields representing Flanders, Tyrol, Brabant, Pomerania, Burgundy (again), Granada, Jerusalem, Naples, and Navarre. This detail acts as a visual map reflecting the geographical scope of Charles V's realm.

Additional Embellishments and Symbols

Above the central shield, the Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire is depicted as the crest. On either side, the shield is flanked by powerful supporters: a black eagle mirroring the imperial symbol and a lion, representing the Kingdom of Spain, flanking the display and reinforcing the double symbolism.

The design also incorporates the Grand Collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece, adding a touch of prestige and symbolizing Charles V's connection to this prestigious chivalric order. Finally, the motto "PLVS VLTRA" ("More Beyond"), encircles the primary display. Its placement, just under the design, acts as an additional symbol, a heraldic declaration of exploration and expansion echoing the age of discovery.

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.
