Somerville College Oxford Coat Of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished Coat of Arms of Somerville College, Oxford, a symbol steeped in history and meaning. The design pays homage to the college's founding principles, its dedication to women's education, and its namesake, Mary Somerville.

The Visual Elements

The central design features the heraldic elements of the Coat of Arms, beginning with an azure (blue) background, signifying loyalty, truth, and wisdom. A striking gold cross bisects the field, a symbol of faith and enlightenment. Accompanying the cross are four silver mullets (stars), which represent guidance, inspiration, and the aspiration towards knowledge. Above, a chief argent (silver band) carries a closed, sable (black) book, a direct visual reference to learning and scholarship, representing the pursuit and importance of education.

Meaning and Symbolism

Every element within the design carries profound symbolism. The cross and mullets together celebrate faith, aspiration, and the pursuit of knowledge. The closed book on the chief, the dominant feature, clearly indicates the value placed on education and scholarship, while the overall composition and color scheme emphasize the college's historic commitment to intellectual pursuit. The artwork celebrates the long-standing tradition of academic excellence and the college's commitment to creating a welcoming and inspiring learning environment.

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.
