Pio Nono (Italy) (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the majestic coat of arms of Pope Pius IX, affectionately known as "Pio Nono" in Italy. The design is a powerful statement of papal history and heraldic tradition.

The Arms of Pope Pius IX

The primary visual element is the shield, meticulously divided into four quarters. The first and fourth quarters feature a striking blue (azure) field, upon which a golden (or) lion rampant – a symbol of strength and courage – is boldly displayed. The lion rests its hind foot on a gold coin (bezant), representing financial prudence and the connection to the papal treasury. These quarters showcase the lion rampant, indicating the heraldic symbolism used.

The second and third quarters present a silver (argent) field, crossed by two vibrant red (gules) diagonal stripes, known as bends. The arrangement suggests the pontiff's authority and spiritual guidance. They show the colors and pattern that represent the papal reign.

Papal Symbols

Above the shield, the design incorporates the papal tiara, a triple crown that symbolizes the Pope's authority as the shepherd of the universal Church. Below the shield, the crossed keys of the papacy are depicted, representing the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven granted to St. Peter.

The overall design reflects the history of the papacy, and is a striking artistic statement.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
