Vielsalm Wapens Shot Glass: Design Description

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms of Vielsalm, a municipality in the province of Luxembourg, Belgium. The design is a direct representation of the official heraldic emblem granted to the region.

Visual Elements

The central element of the design is a white shield, prominently displaying two red salmon. The salmon are depicted in a vertical arrangement, fin to tail, facing upwards. This precise layout mirrors the traditional heraldic representation of the Vielsalm coat of arms.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design's symbolism is rooted in its etymological origin. The salmon motif acts as a "canting" element, a visual pun on the name "Salm." This is because "Salm" is thought to derive from the German word for "salmon." Therefore, the presence of the two salmon directly references the name and history associated with the House of Salm, the noble family who were influential in the region.

The design's simplicity, featuring the bold contrasting colors of red and white, gives it a clear and easily recognizable appearance, reflecting the rich history of the area.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
