Sidney Sussex College Cambridge Arms Shot Glass Design

A Symbol of Heritage and Lineage

This shot glass showcases the heraldic arms of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, presented in the traditional lozenge shape, signifying the college's historical connection to its female founder, Frances Sidney, Countess of Sussex.

The Lozenge: A Feminine Heraldic Touch

The use of the lozenge immediately speaks to the college's founding by a woman. This elegant shape is a time-honored convention in heraldry, specifically employed to display the arms of women, ensuring a visual connection to the Countess's legacy.

Argent and Azure: Purity and Strength

The design features two key colors: Argent, represented by the silver/white background, and Azure, the blue of the central emblem. The Argent signifies sincerity, peace, and purity, while the Azure is used in the central element.

The Pheon: An Arrowhead of Legacy

At the heart of the design is a striking pheon, an arrowhead with barbs. This azure (blue) pheon, pointing downwards, is a direct reference to the Sidney family arms. The pheon symbolizes military readiness and strength, however, when used in this context it emphasizes continuity, patronage, and the college's foundational connection to the Sidney family. The pheon's presence solidifies the college's identity and its strong links to its history.

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.
