Vexillology of Brazil 19th Century Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the rich heraldic history of 19th-century Brazil, specifically focusing on the evolution of its coat of arms across two distinct periods: the Empire and the early Republic.

Imperial Design (1822-1889)

The design prominently features the imperial coat of arms used during the reign of Emperors Pedro I and Pedro II. The central element is a green shield, the background for the imperial symbols. Dominating the shield is a golden armillary sphere, overlaid with a Portuguese-style cross, reflecting Brazil's heritage. Surrounding the sphere are stars, their number corresponding to the provinces of the Empire, symbolizing unity. Above the shield sits the Imperial Crown, the emblem of sovereignty. Flanking the shield is a wreath composed of branches of coffee and tobacco, significant agricultural products that represented Brazil's economic strength during the period.

Republican Design (Post-1889)

The glass also presents the coat of arms adopted after the establishment of the Republic in 1889. The core design is a circular shield with a blue field, representing the night sky, and prominently displaying the Southern Cross constellation (Cruzeiro do Sul), a major national symbol. A border of stars surrounds the blue circle. Like its predecessor, this design incorporates branches of coffee and tobacco, retaining the importance of agriculture. A ribbon, bearing the official name "República Federativa do Brasil" and the date of the Republic's proclamation (15 de Novembro de 1889), is also depicted. Finally, the entire shield is often set against a background of radiating gold star rays, adding a bright and distinct appearance.

This pint glass is a visual journey through Brazil's transformation, capturing the key elements of its heraldic evolution and the symbolism they represent.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.

One size: 16 oz (≈0.47 L). Below are product dimensions to help with shelving, storage, and packaging choices.
