Shield of Aberystwyth University Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Aberystwyth University, a visual testament to its rich academic heritage and Welsh identity. The centerpiece of the design is the heraldic shield, quartered to represent the multifaceted nature of the university's origins and mission.

The Quarterly Design

The shield's design is divided into four sections, each a field representing a significant aspect of Aberystwyth University. These quarters typically incorporate symbolic elements drawn from traditional heraldry, reflecting the university's history and values.

Symbolism and Representation

Key elements within the quarters often include open books, the universal symbol of learning and scholarship. These books underscore the university's dedication to education and the pursuit of knowledge. The presence of a Lion Rampant or other heraldic beasts further anchors the design to its Welsh roots and regional identity. These represent the historical ties of the university to Wales.

Other visual charges, such as stars or crosses, may be incorporated to signify knowledge, guidance, or artistic pursuits, adding layers of meaning to the overall design. The color palette, drawn from traditional heraldic hues, reinforces these meanings; colors like azure (blue) for knowledge and truth, and argent (silver/white) for purity and peace are often present. The design is a miniature representation of the full coat of arms, a powerful symbol of the university’s heritage.

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.
