Wappen Altenmünster Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the coat of arms (Wappen) of Altenmünster, a Bavarian town steeped in history. The design is a miniature representation of a heraldic masterpiece, packed with symbolic meaning.

Visual Elements and Their Significance

The central element is a shield, rendered in stark black (sable). Across this field runs a diagonal checkered stripe, or "bend," divided into alternating red and white squares. This checkered bend is a visual reference to the Cistercian order, specifically recalling the historical connection to the Oberschönenfeld Abbey.

In the upper-left corner of the shield (sinister chief) are two golden roundels, or balls, adding a touch of brilliance. These represent the arms of the Herren (Lords) of Münster, a noble family with historical ties to the town, who traditionally displayed three such balls.

Finally, the lower-right corner (dexter base) features a golden kettle. This is the attribute of St. Vitus (St. Veit), the patron saint of Altenmünster, connecting the coat of arms with the town's religious identity.

In its entirety, the design of the Altenmünster coat of arms intricately weaves together the threads of religious history, local noble families, and the town's patron saint, resulting in a visually rich and historically meaningful emblem.

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.
