Perho.vaakuna (Finland) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of Perho, Finland's coat of arms. The design centers around a striking visual contrast, making it instantly recognizable.

The Shield & Its Elements

The dominant feature is the black (sable) shield, providing a strong backdrop for the elements it bears. At the heart of the design, a golden (Or) butterfly takes flight, directly referencing the municipality's name, "perhonen," which translates to "butterfly" in Finnish.

Above the butterfly, positioned in the chief (top) of the shield, is a silver (argent) cross pattée fitchy, also known as a "nail-cross." This specific style of cross holds a significant cultural and historical reference, alluding to the poem “The Tomb in Perho” by J. L. Runeberg.

Heraldic Harmony

The deliberate use of a black field with a gold butterfly exemplifies a key principle of heraldic design: visual clarity and contrast. The golden butterfly shines brightly against the dark background, ensuring the design is easily seen.

The Perho coat of arms, designed by Gustaf von Numers, is a striking example of visual storytelling through symbolism, offering a glimpse into the municipality's identity and cultural heritage.

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.
