Oxford University Circlet Shot Glass: Design Description

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of the University of Oxford, England, rendered in a striking circular design known as the "circlet" badge. The artwork centers on a traditional heraldic shield, the core visual element of the university's identity.

Central Design Elements

At the heart of the design is a striking blue shield. Upon this field, a prominent open book takes center stage, its pages displaying the inscription "DOMINUS ILLUMINATIO MEA," a Latin phrase meaning "The Lord is my light." The book features a detailed rendering of red leather binding and gold detailing, capturing the book's importance in scholarship. Flanking the book, the design incorporates three open golden crowns, positioned two above and one below the book.

Symbolism and Meaning

The open book symbolizes learning, the pursuit of knowledge, and the transmission of wisdom. The Latin motto, inscribed on the book, underscores the university's commitment to a religious and moral foundation. The three crowns traditionally represent the three cardinal faculties within the university: Theology, Medicine, and Law. Together, these elements represent the rich academic and intellectual heritage of Oxford University.

Overall Appearance

The entire design is contained within a circular frame, or "circlet," bearing the name of the university, "UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD". This elegant framing provides a cohesive and easily recognizable symbol of the esteemed institution, perfect for this iconic shot glass.

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.
