Shield of Christ Church University Canterbury (United Kingdom) Shot Glass

A Heraldic Masterpiece

This shot glass proudly displays the official coat of arms of Canterbury Christ Church University, a powerful visual statement steeped in history and meaning. The design centers on the traditional escutcheon, a heraldic shield reflecting the university's core values and heritage.

Quartered for Heritage

The shield's design is quartered, dividing the space into four distinct sections, each representing a facet of the university's identity. This division underscores the multifaceted nature of the institution, intertwining faith, scholarship, and civic ties.

Symbols of Faith and Learning

The top left quarter often features a cross or other ecclesiastical symbol, a clear acknowledgement of the university's Christian foundation and its strong links to the Church of England. In the top right quarter, the open books symbolize the pursuit of learning and the importance of scholarship at the heart of the university's mission.

Echoes of Canterbury

The bottom two quarters frequently incorporate symbols associated with Canterbury Cathedral. These could include keys, referencing the authority of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the city's profound ecclesiastical history. These elements honor the university's connection to the historic city and its rich religious heritage.

Colors of Significance

The design utilizes traditional heraldic colors, imbuing the shield with further layers of symbolism. Azure (blue) signifies truth, loyalty, and wisdom, while Argent (silver/white) represents purity and knowledge. Or (gold) denotes excellence and generosity, and Gules (red) speaks of courage and strength, all reflected in the university's values.

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.
