Vaals Wapen Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of the Wapen van Vaals, the coat of arms of Vaals, Netherlands. The design centers around a vibrant composition steeped in history and symbolism.

Central Figure: Saint Lambertus

Dominating the design is Saint Lambertus, the patron saint of Vaals. He is depicted as a bishop, vested in radiant gold, wearing a matching mitre, and his skin and hands rendered in natural tones. In his right hand, he holds a bishop’s staff and a lance, both crafted in gold, signifying his authority and protection. This visual centerpiece embodies the religious significance of the town.

Symbolic Elements

The saint stands upon a verdant terrace of green, the base of the design. Before him, he rests his left hand on a small shield of silver. The shield is emblazoned with a striking red lion rampant, double-tailed, with golden tongue and claws, which represents 's-Hertogenrade, adding a layer of historical connection to the composition. The lion is a symbol of courage, strength, and royalty.

Color Palette and Meaning

The design utilizes a rich color palette, deeply symbolic in heraldry. The vibrant red background (gules) represents valor and sacrifice. The gold (or) symbolizes generosity, elevation, and faith. Silver (argent) signifies peace and sincerity, while green (vert) denotes hope, joy, and growth. The combination of these colors alongside the saint and lion provides a strong narrative and showcases the heraldic principles of the artwork.

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.
