Obdam Wapen 1816 Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms (wapen) of the former municipality of Obdam, located in North Holland, Netherlands. The design is a striking example of traditional heraldry, instantly recognizable for its bold colors and simple elegance.

Visual Elements

The central element of the design is the shield, rendered in a vibrant red (Gules) field. Contrasting sharply against the red background are three golden crescents (Or). These crescents are arranged in a classic triangular pattern: two positioned at the top of the shield and one centered at the bottom.

Symbolism and Meaning

The red field is a heraldic symbol that typically represents courage, valor, and strength. The three golden crescents hold a deeper significance, primarily associated with the noble family of Wassenaar van Obdam, a prominent lineage in the region's history. Crescents in heraldry frequently symbolize honor, growth, and hope. In this instance, they also serve as a direct reference to the Wassenaar van Obdam family, cementing their legacy within the municipality's identity.

This design is more than just a decorative element; it's a visual embodiment of Obdam's heritage, nobility, and historical significance.

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.
