Wappen Landkreis Hofheim in Unterfranken Shot Glass: Design Description

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms, or Wappen, of the former Landkreis Hofheim in Unterfranken, a district in Lower Franconia, Germany. The design is a miniature representation of the region's rich history and cultural identity.

The Design Elements

The artwork is divided horizontally, reflecting the heraldic "per fess" style. The upper portion, or "chief," displays a majestic red lion, proudly "passant guardant" (walking with a raised paw and looking forward), adorned with a gold crown and armed with gold claws. This powerful emblem symbolizes the historic rule of the Prince-Bishopric of Bamberg, which governed the area for centuries.

The lower portion, or "base," introduces a more pastoral element. Against a backdrop of blue, a verdant green mount rises, from which a vine branch gracefully extends. This branch bears three clusters of golden grapes, representing the important viticulture, or winemaking tradition, of the Hofheim region, particularly along the Main River valley. The golden grapes symbolize the fertility of the Franconian landscape and the area's agricultural heritage.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design effectively captures the essence of the former district. The lion represents the area's historic ecclesiastical and political ties, while the vine and grapes highlight the region's agricultural heart and its significance in wine production. The combination creates a concise and visually compelling summary of the Landkreis Hofheim's identity, a blend of historical governance and rural life.

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.
