Shield of the University of Kent Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of the University of Kent, a design rich in regional heritage and historical significance.

The Shield's Imagery

The shield itself is divided in two by a chevron. The upper portion, rendered in silver, features three Cornish choughs, black birds with red legs and beaks, symbols of the City of Canterbury, and originally from the arms of Thomas Becket. The lower portion, depicted in red, prominently displays a white horse rampant, a prancing white horse, the iconic symbol of the County of Kent, also known as the White Horse of Kent. These elements are a visual testament to the university’s strong ties to the region.

Crest and Supporters

Above the shield, the crest presents the West Gate of Canterbury, a direct reference to the city, with water flowing beneath it, likely symbolizing the Great Stour River. Crossed golden bishops' crosiers further reinforce the ecclesiastical heritage of the area. Flanking the shield, two golden lions passant guardant, each adorned with the stern of a golden ship, are drawn from the arms of the Cinque Ports, representing the coastal history and associations.

Symbolic Representation

The artwork encapsulates the university's core values. The shield is a proud statement of location, linking the university to the important landmarks of Kent, and is associated with Canterbury’s importance in British history. This design on the shot glass celebrates the history and heritage of the University of Kent.

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.
