Uster-Nänikon-blazon (Switzerland) (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic arms of Nänikon, a district within Uster, Switzerland. The design is a striking visual representation steeped in symbolic meaning.

Color Division and Field

The shield's foundation is a simple yet effective division: a horizontal split (per fess) creating an upper field of Or (gold or yellow) and a lower field of Sable (black). This bold contrast immediately draws the eye and forms the backdrop for the more intricate elements.

The Point and Crescent

At the base of the design, within the black field, a point per pale of gold and black is cleverly integrated. This upward-pointing triangular shape provides visual interest and creates a sense of direction. Overlying all these elements is the dominant feature: a crescent Argent (silver or white). The crescent stands out, providing the central point of focus.

Symbolism

While the specific symbolism of these elements within Nänikon's context may require further research, heraldry often relies on the language of color and form to represent values, history, or geographic features. The golden and black fields create a strong base, while the crescent Argent, the most prominent symbol, likely carries a specific meaning relating to the district's identity or lineage. The design is therefore a compact and instantly recognizable statement of the Nänikon district.

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.
