Wappen Hölstein (Switzerland) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Hölstein, a village in the canton of Basel-Landschaft, Switzerland. The design is a bold visual statement, immediately recognizable for its historical significance and striking contrast.

The Emblem of Hölstein

At the heart of the design lies the heraldic shield, rendered in a vibrant crimson red. This crimson background provides a striking backdrop for the central element, a silver (argent) eagle, gracefully displayed horizontally, or "fesswise". This orientation gives the eagle a unique and dynamic presence, as if soaring across the glass.

Eagle's Details

The eagle's beak, claws, and tongue are meticulously colored in a rich gold (or). This golden detailing adds a touch of elegance and nobility to the design, enhancing the visual richness and highlighting the bird's form. The eagle's depiction honors the Eptingen family, the feudal lords of Hölstein during the 14th and 15th centuries.

Historical Significance

The colors themselves carry deep meaning. The red, along with the silver/white of the eagle, recall the historical ties to the Cluniac Abbey of Payerne, dating back to the 10th century. This carefully chosen color palette, combined with the eagle's depiction, effectively encapsulates Hölstein's enduring historical legacy and its key affiliations.

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.
