Swiss Flag Bachmann 1815 Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass features a compelling visual representation of the Swiss Flag – Bachmann 1815, a significant historical design that paved the way for the modern Swiss national flag. The artwork showcases the flag's distinctive elements, allowing for an appreciation of its symbolic history.

The Design: A Historical Echo

The primary design element is a vivid red field, echoing the bravery and independence of the Swiss Confederation. A prominent white Greek cross, the central motif, is emblazoned across the red background. This cross, broader and with longer arms than its modern counterpart, is a direct nod to the cantonal flags and military banners of the late 18th century, and the early symbols of faith and unity in the Swiss Confederation.

Symbolism Woven into the Design

The design speaks volumes. The white cross, a powerful symbol, represents the long-standing Christian tradition and the unity of the Swiss cantons. The red field, acting as the backdrop, embodies the nation's spirit of courage and self-reliance. The flag's rectangular shape mirrors the historical layout of early Swiss military flags, a visual testament to Switzerland's journey from a collection of cantons to a unified nation.

This shot glass design captures a historical prototype, a "bridge design" between medieval Swiss war banners and the current national flag. It's a tribute to the past, reminding us of the evolution of national symbols and the enduring values they represent.

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.
