Somerville College Oxford Coat of Arms Pint Glass - Design Description

Elegant Heraldry for Oxford Scholars

This pint glass showcases the esteemed coat of arms of Somerville College, Oxford. The design centers around a shield, meticulously rendered to reflect the college's historic commitment to education and its pioneering role in women's higher learning. The visual impact is one of classic collegiate heraldry, embodying both tradition and intellectual aspiration.

Symbolism in Silver and Blue

The primary element of the design is the shield itself, featuring a striking combination of colors and symbols. The background, Argent (silver or white), represents peace, sincerity, and purity. A bold Chevron Azure (blue chevron) takes center stage, signifying protection, achievement, and a dedication to scholarly pursuits. The blue is a vibrant counterpoint to the silver, immediately drawing the eye.

Guiding Lights of Enlightenment

Emblazoned upon the blue chevron are three golden stars, or Mullets Or. These stars symbolize guidance, excellence, and enlightenment – core tenets of Somerville College's educational mission. The arrangement of the mullets creates a visually balanced and impactful design. The golden hue provides a luxurious accent against the blue and silver, suggesting value and achievement.

A Timeless Emblem

The overall design is simple yet deeply meaningful. It prioritizes clarity of symbolic representation, perfectly aligning with modern collegiate heraldry. The artwork directly communicates the core values of Somerville College, creating a visually compelling representation of its history and ethos. The shield itself serves as the primary visual focus, offering a lasting emblem of intellectual courage and scholastic excellence.

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.
