Wappen des Landkreises Potsdam-Mittelmark Shot Glass: Design and Symbolism

This shot glass showcases the intricate and historically rich coat of arms of the Landkreis Potsdam-Mittelmark, a district in Brandenburg, Germany. The design, officially granted in 1996, is a quartered composition, each section meticulously crafted to represent the area's diverse heritage.

First Quarter: The Red Eagle of Brandenburg

The top left quarter features an imposing red eagle, armed with golden talons, set against a silver (argent) background. This striking emblem is a direct reference to the Margraviate of Brandenburg, emphasizing the district's deep historical connection to the broader Brandenburg region.

Second Quarter: The Golden Oak Branch

The top right quarter presents a golden oak branch, complete with three leaves, on a black (sable) field. This imagery symbolizes the abundance of oak forests found within the district's borders, and cleverly alludes to the merging of the three former districts – Belzig, Brandenburg-Land, and Potsdam-Land – into the present-day Landkreis.

Third Quarter: Black and Gold Stripes of Saxony

The bottom left quarter displays a pattern of ten horizontal stripes, alternating between black (sable) and gold (or). This design element commemorates the historical affiliation of the Belzig area with Saxony, a significant influence prior to 1815.

Fourth Quarter: The Red Keys of the Bishopric

Completing the coat of arms, the bottom right quarter depicts two red (gules) keys crossed in a saltire (X-shape), their wards facing upwards, set against a silver (argent) background. This poignant representation honors the district's ecclesiastical heritage and its historical connection to the Bishopric of Brandenburg.

The overall design is a carefully considered visual tapestry, interwoven with historical narratives and regional identities, making this shot glass a striking tribute to the Landkreis Potsdam-Mittelmark.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
