Vorderthal (Switzerland) Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of Vorderthal, a municipality nestled in the Swiss canton of Schwyz. The design is a direct representation of the municipality's coat of arms, a powerful visual statement with deep symbolic meaning.

The Divided Shield

The design features a shield that is vertically divided, or "per pale," creating two distinct halves. This division sets the stage for the specific elements that comprise the coat of arms.

Left Side: The Key

On the left side of the shield, against a rich red background (gules), a gold key with a uniquely heart-shaped handle is prominently displayed. This key is a direct reference to Saint Peter, one of the patron saints of the local parish church. As the keeper of the keys to Heaven, the key is a potent symbol of authority, faith, and the church's spiritual power.

Right Side: The Sword

The right side of the shield (argent, or silver) features a silver sword with a hilt in red (gules). This represents Saint Paul, the other patron saint of the local parish. The sword symbolizes Saint Paul’s martyrdom and his ultimate sacrifice for his faith, making it a testament to religious devotion and unwavering belief.

Apostolic Significance

Together, the key and the sword represent the two apostles, Peter and Paul, who are the guardians of Vorderthal. These symbols, combined on a single shield, offer a profound glimpse into the historical and spiritual foundations of the municipality.

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.
