Naval Ensign of French Algeria (1848-1910) Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass features a striking design that pays homage to the naval ensign of French Algeria, used between 1848 and 1910. The artwork recreates the distinctive flag, a unique variation on the French Tricolore.

Color Arrangement

The design utilizes horizontal bands of the French national colors: blue, white, and red. The pattern is often described as a "double tricolour" due to its arrangement. The sequence of colors from top to bottom is white, blue, red, white, red, blue, and finally, white.

Symbolism

The flag's design is rich with symbolism. The presence of the French tricolor colors — blue, white, and red — unequivocally links the flag to France and its colonial administration. The ensign served to identify vessels from French Algeria, distinguishing them from those flying the standard French naval or civil ensigns, indicating their specific origin within the French colonial system.

This design therefore encapsulates a moment in history, representing the maritime identity of French Algeria and its unique place within the French colonial empire.

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.
