University College Birmingham Shot Glass Design

This shot glass proudly displays the official coat of arms of University College Birmingham (UCB), a symbol of heritage, valor, and the pursuit of knowledge. The design beautifully captures the essence of the university's identity, making it a striking visual representation.

Heraldic Elements and Their Meaning

The central element of the design is the shield itself, divided into sections that each tell a part of UCB's story. The dominant colors, Gules (red) and Or (gold), are immediately eye-catching. These traditional heraldic hues signify strength, valor, and the generosity inherent in the university's mission.

The black chevronel represents the very foundation of the institution and its unwavering dedication to education. Above the chevronel, you'll find two plates, or silver discs, paying homage to the university's connection to the vibrant city of Birmingham.

On one side, a golden garb of wheat reminds us of agriculture and UCB's commitment to practical education. On the other side, a bold boar's head couped signifies courage and determination, qualities the university cultivates in its students.

Finally, the base of the design features two sprigs of bay, bound by a red ribbon, a symbol of honor and achievement. At the very center of the design, a vibrant flame of fire represents the enlightenment and knowledge that is at the heart of the educational experience offered at UCB.

This shot glass encapsulates the UCB coat of arms, a powerful statement of the university's history, values, and commitment to the future.

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.
