Onslow Arms (New Zealand) Shot Glass Design

Visual Representation of Heritage

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of the Onslow family, intimately connected with New Zealand's history through William Hillier Onslow, the 4th Earl of Onslow. The design is a powerful visual statement, drawn directly from the family's distinguished coat of arms.

The Shield: A Story in Colors and Symbols

The central element of the design, the shield, is rendered in precise detail. The field is Argent (silver), providing a bright backdrop. Across this field runs a bold fess gules (red). Above and below the fess are six Cornish choughs sable (black), their beaks and legs colored gules (red). The choughs, birds symbolizing vigilance and family unity, are key to the Onslow identity. The contrast between silver, red, and black creates a striking and memorable design.

Crest and Supporters: Emblems of Authority

Above the shield, the crest presents an eagle sable (black), preying upon a partridge or (gold). The eagle, a symbol of strength and vision, clutches its prey. Supporting the shield on either side are two falcons close proper (natural), belled or (gold). These supporters add balance and emphasize the heraldic composition.

Motto: The Call to Action

Inscribed within the design, the motto "Festina lente" (Make haste slowly) adds an element of wisdom and introspection to the artwork. This classical phrase reminds the viewer to temper action with deliberation.

A Visual Legacy

The overall design captures the essence of the Onslow legacy, a visual echo of history, authority, and connection to the lands of New Zealand.

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.
