Provisional Coat of Arms of the Colony of São Tomé and Príncipe Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the striking design of the Provisional Coat of Arms of the Colony of São Tomé and Príncipe, a symbol of Portuguese colonial history. The artwork features a meticulously rendered version of the heraldic emblem, capturing its intricate details.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The central element is a tierced shield, divided into three distinct sections, each contributing to the emblem's rich symbolism. The top section, a blue shield, proudly displays the traditional Portuguese royal arms: a cross pattern formed by five smaller white shields, each bearing five dots. This element underscores the historical connection to Portugal.

The middle section features a red shield, emblazoned with a golden (yellow) mill wheel. This powerful image directly represents the island's crucial agricultural heritage, most notably the cultivation of cocoa, which played a significant role in the colony's economy.

The bottom section presents a flowing green and white wavy band, visually representing the sea that surrounds the islands. This element emphasizes the maritime environment and the island’s geographical context.

The shield is encircled by a mural crown, a traditional heraldic symbol of a fortified city, denoting its importance. Supporting the shield is a wooden armillary sphere, a navigational instrument that symbolizes Portugal's Age of Discovery and its historical exploration.

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.
