USS Mobile Bay CG 53 Crest Shot Glass: Design Description

This shot glass showcases the official crest of the USS Mobile Bay (CG-53), a Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser of the U.S. Navy. The design is a powerful emblem, rich with symbolism, celebrating the ship's heritage and its connection to naval history.

The Shield: A Center of Naval Power

The central element, the shield, is a dynamic composition. It prominently features a ship's wheel, a classic symbol of naval command and leadership at sea. Crossed cutlass and sword represent the professional expertise and dedication of the Surface Warfare community. A modern ship silhouette pays tribute to the USS Mobile Bay itself. Completing the shield's design is a naval cannon, echoing the historical and modern firepower associated with the ship and the Battle of Mobile Bay.

Above the Shield: Remembering History

Crowning the shield, the crest showcases silhouettes of the USS Hartford and the CSS Tennessee, two ships involved in the Battle of Mobile Bay. This visual narrative honors the ship's namesake battle and the Union victory. Positioned above, four stars symbolize Admiral David Farragut’s pioneering achievement as the Navy’s first four-star admiral.

The Border: Unity and Modern Technology

The border is a continuous anchor chain, representing the unity, teamwork, and cooperation of the warship's crew. The elongated octagonal shape of the border subtly hints at the ship's advanced Aegis radar system, a vital element of its modern combat capabilities.

The Motto: A Call to Action

The motto, "FULL SPEED AHEAD," is prominently displayed, echoing Admiral Farragut’s inspiring command during the Battle of Mobile Bay. It embodies decisive action, courage, and unwavering determination.

In summary, the design encapsulates the USS Mobile Bay’s history, mission, and the values upheld by its crew, connecting the modern warship to the courage and legacy of naval history.

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.
