Royal Holloway University of London Pint Glass: Design Description

This pint glass showcases the esteemed coat of arms of Royal Holloway, University of London, a design rich with history and symbolism, reflecting the merger of Royal Holloway College and Bedford College.

The Shield

The central element is the shield, meticulously crafted with a chequered pattern of black and gold. This pattern is derived from the arms of Bedford College, paying homage to its legacy. Overlaid upon this pattern are the distinctive ermine spots, elegant feather-like markings which are taken from the Royal Holloway coat of arms, connecting the two institutions.

Symbolism and Imagery

At the crest of the shield, three crescents are positioned, borrowed from Thomas Holloway's personal arms, representing the founder of Royal Holloway College. Centrally placed between two black lozenges is a prominent lamp of learning, a timeless emblem of education, indicating the university's academic purpose. The lozenge shape has historical ties to women and specifically to the unmarried and widowed, reflecting the origins of the colleges as institutions for women.

Design Legacy

The entire design is a thoughtful composition, formalized after the historic merger of the two colleges. This coat of arms isn't just a visual representation; it's a carefully considered emblem, expressing the values, history, and academic heritage of Royal Holloway, University of London.

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.
