University of Northampton Coat of Arms Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the esteemed Coat of Arms of the University of Northampton, a design rich in local heritage and academic symbolism.

The Shield

The central element of the design is the shield. The background is a vibrant green field, providing a base for the other elements. A striking wavy blue band, bordered in white, gracefully bisects the shield, graphically representing the River Nene, a defining feature of the region.

Above the river, a prominent triple-turreted tower, rendered in crisp white, rises majestically. This tower, with its raised golden portcullis, directly symbolizes the historic Northampton Castle, connecting the university to its roots.

The Chief

The upper section, known as the Chief, is a band of gold. Within this gold band, two open books, depicted in their natural colors with red bindings, take center stage. These books are a clear and concise symbol of learning, education, and the university's core mission.

Crest & Supporters

Beyond the shield itself, the design extends to other heraldic components. The crest, a half deer in red holding a red and white rose, sits above the shield, tying into the Worshipful Company of Leathersellers and Northamptonshire's regional emblem.

On either side, the supporters are visible. A golden lion, representing the town of Northampton, stands on one side while a black bull, representing Northamptonshire, stands on the other. Both supporters stand on a base of wavy blue and white lines, symbolizing the River Nene and adding continuity.

Overall Design

The complete design of the University of Northampton's Coat of Arms is a testament to the university's commitment to honoring its past while looking towards the future of learning. Every detail of the artwork is laden with significance, making this pint glass a meaningful piece of art.

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.
