Venosa-Stemma Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the iconic coat of arms (Stemma) of Venosa, a comune in the heart of Basilicata, Italy. The artwork is a miniature representation of this historically rich municipal emblem.

The Shield

Dominating the design is the azure (blue) shield, a canvas representing the vast sky above the ancient city. At its heart stands a silver (white) castle or tower, the central element mirroring the medieval fortifications that once defined Venosa’s strategic importance. Often, this tower is artfully placed upon a verdant green hill, visually connecting the emblem to the surrounding landscape.

Symbolism and Embellishments

The tower itself is a potent symbol of Venosa's defensive heritage and its long history. Depending on the specific rendition, the design may include additional heraldic flourishes such as golden stars and fleurs-de-lis, adding layers of meaning. These additional elements, when present, underscore the city’s civic pride, its historical connections to noble families, and the legacy of its past.

Civic Authority and Honor

Crowning the design is the mural crown, the standard symbol of civic authority in Italian heraldry. This stone crown, complete with battlements, firmly asserts Venosa's status as a municipality.

Supporting Elements

Completing the design is the ornamentation: oak and laurel branches flank the shield, their presence signifying strength, honor, and victory. These branches are gracefully bound at their base by a ribbon, proudly displaying the colors of the Italian tricolore – green, white, and red – a further testament to Venosa’s connection to its national identity.

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.
