Wappen-baeretswil Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the iconic coat of arms (Wappen) of Bäretswil, a municipality in Switzerland. The design is a bold heraldic statement, centered around a striking visual: a black bear standing upright, known in heraldry as "rampant," against a golden yellow background (or "field").

Visual Elements & Representation

The primary element is the black bear, a significant detail is the bear's red tongue, adding a contrasting touch of color. The bear's pose conveys strength and regality, typical of heraldic symbols. The use of gold (yellow) as the background provides a luxurious and prestigious feel, common in heraldic designs.

Symbolism & Meaning

The bear in the design is more than just an image; it carries a deep connection to Bäretswil's history and identity. Though the town's name doesn't directly mean "bear," the motif likely plays on the town's name's origin, which comes from "Bär-wolf" (bear-wolf). As a canting device, it is a visual pun based on the place name. Additionally, the bear could potentially symbolize a historical connection with the Abbey of St. Gallen, which once held property in the area, although this is more of a hypothesis than a proven fact.

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.
