Prato Leventina Coat of Arms Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the heraldic brilliance of the former municipality of Prato Leventina, Switzerland, a design rich in symbolism and historical significance.

The Shield: A Divided Field

The coat of arms is divided into two distinct sections, a visual representation of the region. The upper portion of the shield is dominated by a silver (argent) chief, which holds a prominent red (gules) band bearing a simple yet powerful silver (argent) cross. Below, the field transitions to a vivid blue (azure) background, which serves as the primary canvas for the central heraldic elements.

The Azure Field and the Canine Guardians

Upon this blue field, two silver (argent) dogs are displayed in a dynamic stance. They are depicted in a rampant pose, standing on their hind legs, facing each other (reguardant). The dogs are adorned with golden (or) collars, a detail adding to the design's opulence. In a gesture of unity, the dogs collectively hold a golden (or) fleur-de-lis, the central symbolic element.

Symbolism and Significance

The design speaks volumes about the region's heritage. The silver cross on a red field is a traditional element. The dogs are often seen as symbols of loyalty, vigilance, and protection. Their regal pose and golden collars enhance their image of importance. The central fleur-de-lis, a symbol of purity, light and perfection, is held by the dogs and symbolizes both faith and unity. The overall design created by artist Gastone Cambin in 1953, offers a visually arresting depiction of a region's history.

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.
