Wapen van Gouda Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the iconic Wapen van Gouda, the esteemed coat of arms of the historic Dutch city of Gouda. The design presents a striking visual representation of Gouda's rich heritage.

Shield Design

The primary focus is the shield, the central element of the coat of arms. It features a bold red (Gules) background, symbolizing courage, valor, and strength. A pristine white (Argent) cross boldly divides the shield into four distinct quarters.

Quarterly Lions

Within each of the four quarters, a majestic black (Sable) lion rampant is depicted. These lions, symbols of nobility and bravery, are historically linked to the Counts of Holland, rulers of the region during the medieval period. This design element reflects Gouda's historical ties and its importance in the region.

Additional Elements

Depending on the version, a golden crown could be used above the shield, further emphasizing Gouda's civic authority and historical autonomy. However, this shot glass focuses on the core design: the shield and its powerful imagery.

Symbolism in Brief

The overall composition is imbued with layers of meaning. The red background speaks of courage, the white cross signifies faith and protection, and the black lions embody nobility and historical significance. It's a striking visual embodiment of a city steeped in history.

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.
