Wappen Appenzell Ausserrhoden matt (Switzerland) Shot Glass 1.5oz - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, a canton in Switzerland. The design prominently features a powerful visual narrative deeply rooted in history and heraldry.

The Central Emblem: The Rampant Black Bear

At the heart of the design is a striking black bear, depicted "rampant," meaning it stands on its hind legs, facing left. This pose is a classic heraldic representation of strength, courage, and vigilance, traditionally associated with the Appenzell region since the Middle Ages. The bear's claws and tongue, rendered in red, further emphasize its warrior-like qualities and valor.

The Supporting Elements: Shield and Flag

The bear is set against a silver (argent) background, which, in heraldic terms, symbolizes peace and sincerity. The bear proudly holds a white flagstaff adorned with a black eagle. The eagle, a symbol of imperial authority and sovereignty, highlights the canton's historical ties.

Symbolism and Meaning

The overall composition is a powerful testament to Appenzell Ausserrhoden's heritage. The bear represents the region's identity and its people's spirit, while the eagle on the flagstaff signifies its historical context within the Holy Roman Empire. The color choices also play a key role, with the silver background underscoring a message of peace and sincerity within the strength and valor represented by the bear and its red claws and tongue.

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.
