Shield of Christ Church University Canterbury Pint Glass

This pint glass showcases the esteemed coat of arms of Canterbury Christ Church University, a powerful visual representation of its rich history and academic mission. The design, centered on the traditional escutcheon, is meticulously rendered to capture the heraldic precision of the university's official insignia.

The Quartered Design

The shield is quartered, reflecting the multifaceted aspects of the university's identity. This division allows for a balanced portrayal of its founding principles, academic endeavors, and connection to Canterbury's historical and spiritual heritage. Each quadrant contributes a significant layer of meaning to the overall design.

Symbolism and Representation

The top left quarter typically features a cross or another ecclesiastical symbol, a clear acknowledgement of the university's Christian foundation and its roots in the Church of England. This embodies faith, values, and the moral compass guiding the institution.

In the top right quadrant, open books are often displayed, symbolizing the pursuit of knowledge, learning, and scholarship. This imagery represents the core academic mission of the university, its commitment to intellectual growth, and the dissemination of wisdom.

The third and fourth quarters often incorporate symbols such as keys, referencing Canterbury Cathedral and its historical ties. This detail acknowledges the university’s connection to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the city’s profound ecclesiastical past. It signifies authority, legacy, and the enduring strength of its heritage.

Colors and Meaning

The colors, predominantly azure (blue), argent (silver/white), or (gold), and gules (red), are applied with meticulous care, each possessing inherent meaning. Azure embodies truth and wisdom. Argent represents purity and knowledge. Or signifies excellence and generosity. And gules represents courage and strength. These colors, together with the symbolic elements, present a powerful emblem of tradition, academic excellence, and enduring values.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 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 — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — 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 / ≈0.47 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 — 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.
