Wapen van Lier (1818-1838) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic splendor of the Wapen van Lier, the Coat of Arms of Lier, Belgium, as it appeared between 1818 and 1838. The design is a visual testament to the town's history, reflecting its identity during a pivotal period of transition.

The Shield: A Foundation of History

The central element is the shield, its surface rendered in Argent (silver). Upon this field, three bold chevrons, colored Gules (red), are prominently displayed. The chevrons, appearing on Lier's seals since the 14th century, represent an enduring symbol of the town's heritage, a link to its medieval past.

Royal Accoutrements: Authority and Prestige

Surmounting the shield is a regal golden crown, a symbol of authority and the town's standing within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and later, the newly independent Belgium. The crown denotes Lier's recognized status and signifies its importance.

Guardians of Legacy: The Supporting Lions

The shield is held aloft by two majestic golden lions. These powerful creatures, facing towards the shield in a pose known as "omziende leeuwen," act as staunch guardians of the emblem and symbols of strength and civic pride. Their posture suggests a vigilance over the town's reputation and well-being.

The overall composition offers a glimpse into a specific moment of Belgian history. It's a design rich with meaning, portraying the visual identity of Lier during an era of significant change and civic affirmation.

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.
