University of Pennsylvania Coat of Arms Pint Glass Design

This 16oz pint glass showcases the esteemed Coat of Arms of the University of Pennsylvania, a symbol steeped in history and academic tradition. The design prominently features the university's heraldic emblem, offering a glimpse into its rich heritage.

Visual Elements and Symbolism

The design is immediately recognizable for its distinct layout. A red (gules) chief dominates the top, bearing an open book, a classic emblem of learning and knowledge. Flanking the book are two dolphins, taken from the coat of arms of Benjamin Franklin, a founding father of the university. These dolphins represent speed, intelligence, and friendship.

Below the red chief lies a blue (azure) field, upon which rests a grouping of three white discs (plates). These represent truth, sincerity, and peace, and they are derived from the coat of arms of William Penn, the university's namesake.

The glass also includes the University's Latin motto, "Leges Sine Moribus Vanae," which is often featured alongside the primary design, reminding viewers that "Laws without morals are useless."

Color and Composition

The design expertly utilizes the official University colors of red and blue, a nod to the coats of arms of both Franklin and Penn. The arrangement of these elements forms a powerful visual representation of the university's founding principles, values, and its enduring connection to its past.

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.
