University College Durham (England) (Coat of Arms) Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the esteemed coat of arms of University College, Durham, a symbol rich in history and meaning. The design is a vibrant representation of the college's heritage and its connection to the Diocese of Durham.

The Central Design

The central element features a deep blue (Azure) field, the backdrop for a striking gold (Or) cross patonce. The cross, with its unique arms that broaden and end in three splayed points, is a direct link to the arms of the Diocese of Durham, highlighting the college's Christian foundation and its ties to the bishopric.

Guardian Lions

Four silver/white (Argent) lions rampant, positioned in each corner around the cross, further enhance the design. These lions, a common heraldic symbol of courage, strength, and nobility, represent protection and authority. Their placement emphasizes the college's protective and authoritative nature.

The Chief

At the top, a silver/white band (chief) provides the setting for a black (Sable) Cross of St Cuthbert. Flanking the cross are two red (Gules) Durham mitres. The Cross of St Cuthbert is a crucial symbol for Durham, representing its historic and spiritual link to the Cathedral dedicated to St Cuthbert. The mitres, representing the Bishop of Durham, reflect the college's religious origins and historical foundation within the church.

The Motto

Below the main design, though not visually part of the arms, is the college motto: "Non nobis solum," "Not for ourselves alone".

Overall Meaning

The overall design is a powerful statement of heritage, faith, and community service. The cross and mitres emphasize the college's religious roots, while the lions stand for strength and protection, highlighting the college's educational purpose. The detailed symbolism speaks to the history and values of University College, Durham.

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.
