Oudenaarde Wapen (Belgium) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms, or *wapen*, of Oudenaarde, a city steeped in history within East Flanders, Belgium. The design is a striking heraldic representation, a visual testament to the city's rich past.

The Quarterly Design

The central element is the shield, meticulously divided into four quadrants. This 'quarterly' arrangement is a classic heraldic approach, showcasing different elements within a single composition. The design itself is packed with symbolism.

First and Fourth Quarters: The Lion Rampant

The first and fourth quarters feature the iconic black lion rampant, a fierce symbol of strength and power. Set against a silver (argent) background, the lion is depicted in its heraldic glory, with red claws and tongue (armed and langued gules). This lion represents the County of Aalst, a significant historical territory once linked to Oudenaarde.

Second and Third Quarters: The Imperial Eagle

The second and third quarters present a majestic black double-headed eagle, crowned with gold (or). This design is set against a gold (or) background. This majestic eagle symbolizes Oudenaarde's imperial privileges, bestowed upon the city during its time as part of the Holy Roman Empire, signifying its status and importance.

The City's Crown

The design is typically topped by a mural crown, a traditional heraldic symbol that emphasizes Oudenaarde's identity as a fortified city. This adds a visual flourish to the already imposing design.

A Symbol of History

The overall design is a visual narrative. From the County of Aalst to its imperial connections, the Oudenaarde coat of arms on this shot glass captures the essence of Oudenaarde's history and heritage, presented in a timeless heraldic style.

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.
