UoY CoA Updated Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the updated Coat of Arms (CoA) of the University of York (UK), a striking emblem rich with symbolism and historical significance. The design prominently features the arms, crest, and motto of the university, presenting a cohesive and meaningful visual representation.

Arms (Shield)

The central element is the shield, a blue field (Azure) that forms the backdrop. Across this field is a chevron (a V-shaped band) in the ermine pattern, a classic heraldic symbol. The chevron, often representing protection or achievement, bears three horizontal gold (Or) books, each with two downward-pointing clasps. These books directly reference learning and scholarship, core values of the University. The ermine pattern itself suggests dignity and prestige.

Crest

Above the shield, the crest presents additional layers of meaning. Emerging from a silver (Argent) mural crown, representing the city of York, are two crossed keys (one gold and one silver/white). These keys, wards upward and outward, symbolize knowledge and access to wisdom. The silver/white rose, the iconic emblem of York, sits atop the keys, connecting the University to its local heritage.

Motto

Finally, the motto "In limine sapientiae" (On the threshold of wisdom) is an integral part of the design, providing the thematic framework for all the visual elements.

Overall Design

The entire design works in harmony. The azure background, gold books, ermine chevron, mural crown, crossed keys, and white rose are combined to offer a powerful visual statement celebrating the University's core values, academic traditions, and local connections. The design conveys the institution's commitment to scholarship, wisdom, and its enduring connection to the city of York.

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.
