Selwyn College Cambridge Arms Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Selwyn College, Cambridge. The design is a bold and striking representation of the college's heritage and values.

Shield Design

The primary focus is the shield, described in heraldry as "Gules, three roses argent, a cross flory or in chief." This translates visually to a red field, emblazoned with three silver/white roses and a gold cross with floriated ends positioned at the top of the shield.

The vibrant red background, or "Gules," symbolizes courage, strength, and the enduring Christian faith that underpins the college's founding.

Three elegant silver roses, or "argent," grace the shield. These represent purity, learning, and the strong connection to the Church of England, reflecting the college's historical roots and its dedication to the ideals of scholarship.

Positioned prominently at the top of the shield is a gold "cross flory." This denotes the college's Christian foundation and represents the moral guidance and ecclesiastical influence of Bishop George Augustus Selwyn, the college's namesake. The floriated ends of the cross add a touch of elegance and visual interest to the design.

Overall Impression

The overall design is simple yet impactful, embodying the modern heraldry typical of late 19th-century college arms. The combination of the bold red field, the pristine roses, and the striking gold cross creates a design that is both visually appealing and steeped in meaning, celebrating the college's history and its commitment to justice and peace.

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.
