Wappen Uri alt (Switzerland) Shot Glass – Design Overview

This shot glass showcases the historic “Wappen Uri alt,” the coat of arms representing the Canton of Uri in Switzerland. This design offers a glimpse into Uri's proud past, as it appeared in medieval and early-modern representations before modern standardization.

Visual Elements & Symbolism

The design is dominated by the core elements of the Uri "alt" coat of arms. The background is a field of vibrant gold (represented by yellow), symbolizing nobility, sovereignty, and the wealth of the canton.

At the center, the prominent feature is a black bull’s head, depicted in a caboshed style, meaning the head faces forward without a neck visible. The bull’s head symbolizes the strength, courage, and independence that defined the people of Uri, reflecting their hardy character and resilience. A defining detail is the bull’s tongue, rendered in a bold red, which adds a crucial element of vitality and fierceness to the representation.

Historical Significance

The artwork on this shot glass transports you to the 13th century, when the bull’s head became the recognized symbol of Uri. This design reflects the canton’s status as one of the original founding cantons of the Old Swiss Confederacy, carrying with it a profound sense of historical identity and a connection to the very origins of the Swiss nation.

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.
