University of St Andrews Coat of Arms Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the prestigious Coat of Arms of the University of St Andrews, a symbol steeped in history and academic tradition. The design prominently features the shield, meticulously crafted to represent the university's core values and historical connections.

The Shield: A Visual Summary

The shield itself is divided by a saltire (an X-shaped cross) into four distinct sections. The background utilizes the colors of Scotland, with the saltire alternating between silver/white (Argent) and blue (Azure).

Within the shield, the top segment displays an open book in its natural colors, representing the core value of learning. The bottom segment features a red lion (Gules) in a rampant pose, drawn from the Royal Arms of Scotland, to reflect King James I’s connection to the founding of the university.

Across the top of the shield, a red band (chief) displays a white, inverted crescent. It honors Peter de Luna (Pope Benedict XIII), who formally established the University through a Papal Bull in 1413. This crescent is flanked by two gold (Or) hollow lozenges, which come from the arms of Bishop Henry Wardlaw, the founder of the university.

Full Achievement: Completing the Emblem

While the shield forms the core of the design, the full achievement of the arms is represented by additional elements. The glass likely incorporates the crest of an apple tree with the boar of St Andrews.

The design is complete with the inclusion of two supporters. These are displayed as St Andrew holding his cross, and a lion.

In summary, the design embodies the spirit of the University of St Andrews, blending symbols of learning, royal history, faith, and the values that define this distinguished institution.

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.
