Surses Kreis Wappen Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases the striking coat of arms (Wappen) of the former Kreis Surses in Switzerland, a visual testament to the region's history, culture, and natural beauty.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The design, rendered in the classic Swiss heraldic style, centers on a vibrant blue background, representing the clear alpine skies that dominate the Surses valley. Rising from a verdant green hill at the base is a silver tower, its red roof adding a touch of traditional architectural contrast. This tower symbolizes the region's historical castles and fortified churches, representing watchfulness, strength, and the legacy of local autonomy.

Above the tower, a radiant golden sun shines, symbolizing the life, light, and prosperity of the area. This golden sun also nods to the sunny climate enjoyed in the Engadin-Surses region, as well as the enduring identity of the Romansh culture.

Heraldic Composition

The design adheres to the strict guidelines of heraldry, with each element carefully chosen for its visual impact and symbolic meaning. The azure (blue) field forms the backdrop. The vert (green) hill provides the base for the argent (silver) tower, crowned with a gules (red) roof. Overhead, the or (gold) sun completes the composition, resulting in a design that is both visually appealing and rich with historical significance.

This design is a visual representation of the land and its history. It honors the cultural significance of Surses.

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.
