Shield of Aberystwyth University Pint Glass

This pint glass showcases the esteemed coat of arms of Aberystwyth University, a testament to its rich Welsh heritage and dedication to academic excellence. The central focus is the university's heraldic shield, a quartered design meticulously rendered in traditional heraldic style.

The Quarterly Design

The shield's design is divided into four distinct sections, each representing a crucial aspect of the university's identity. This division reflects a multifaceted heritage, embracing both history and the pursuit of knowledge. The carefully chosen elements within each quarter provide layers of symbolic meaning, forming a visual narrative of Aberystwyth University's core values.

Heraldic Elements and Their Meaning

The quarters are populated with symbolic elements chosen from the heraldic palette. These often include the familiar Lion Rampant, a powerful emblem representing Wales and its connection to the region. The inclusion of open books serves as a universal symbol of learning, emphasizing the university's commitment to scholarship and education. Stars, crosses or other geometric elements may be used to convey knowledge, guidance, or artistic pursuits. Furthermore, it is possible that local symbols, such as waves referencing Cardigan Bay, will be incorporated to illustrate a local connection.

Colors of Significance

The artwork utilizes traditional heraldic colors to emphasize the symbolic weight of the design. Expect to see the dignified use of Azure (blue), representing knowledge, truth, and loyalty, alongside Argent (white/silver), symbolizing purity and peace. Or (gold) is often included, adding a touch of excellence and generosity to the composition. The interplay of these colours brings depth and prestige to the shield.

This design serves as a visual representation of Aberystwyth University's historic roots and ongoing commitment to education, making it a proud emblem for all associated with the institution.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
