Antique Bronze Animal Shot Glasses Set 50ml (6)

A toast feels more ceremonial when each glass has its own creature watching over it. This set of six 50 ml shot glasses pairs clear glass cups with antique bronze-style animal bases, bringing a little theatre to whisky, liqueurs or a shared after-dinner pour.

Six creatures around the table

• Each glass has a sculptural animal base, so guests can choose the creature that catches their eye.
• The clear vessels keep the drink visible, while the darker metalwork gives the set an old-world bar cabinet mood.
• The designs include Elephant, Tiger, Snake, Dragon, Rabbit and Ox, each with its own traditional association.
• The animal forms are revealed more fully as the glass is lifted, adding a small moment of discovery to the toast.
• They suit spirits, liqueurs and small ceremonial pours, especially when the table calls for something more memorable than plain glassware.

Antique bronze-style detail

The set combines glass with brass, with the bases finished in an antique bronze style. In the photo, the metalwork has a darkened, aged look with brighter highlights on raised details, giving the creatures depth and definition.

The mood is decorative rather than minimal: curved horns, open jaws, coiled forms and textured faces make each piece feel like a small object in its own right.

Serving with character

Place them together on a tray and let people pick their glass before pouring. The set works especially well for a slow digestif, a celebratory round, or a cabinet display where the animal bases can be seen rather than hidden away.

Because the bases are detailed and finished, wash gently by hand and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid soaking the metalwork, and store the glasses where the raised designs will not be knocked or scratched.

Animals and their meanings

Animal symbolism appears across many storytelling and decorative traditions, often used to give everyday objects a sense of character. In this set, the Elephant is associated with wisdom and strength, the Tiger with courage, the Snake with transformation, the Dragon with power and luck, the Rabbit with prosperity, and the Ox with endurance and stability. These meanings are best enjoyed as cultural context, adding another layer to the choice of glass without turning the set into a ritual object.
