Orzeł PRL (Poland) (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinctive coat of arms of the Polish People's Republic (PRL), a symbol of a significant historical shift in Poland. The design prominently features the Orzeł PRL, presenting a stylized white eagle emblazoned upon a vibrant red shield.

Symbolism and Representation

The central figure, the eagle, is a direct descendant of Poland's traditional heraldic symbol, maintaining its place as a mark of national identity. However, this version of the eagle is notably uncrowned. The absence of the crown is a crucial element, representing the communist government's deliberate break from the monarchy and the symbols of the pre-war Polish state. This detail signifies the rejection of the past and the ushering in of a new political era.

The artwork, consistent with socialist-era aesthetics, is simplified and stylized. This design choice reflects the artistic trends prevalent during the PRL period, marking a clear visual departure from earlier heraldic representations. The overall design speaks to a specific time, a period of political and social transformation, a state firmly under the influence of the Soviet Union.

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.
