Toast to the United States with our patriotic, Great Seal Shot Glass. With a marbled finish, and striking black seal it makes a dramatic statement for your bar or kitchen. It is ready to be put to use: for spirits, espresso shots, or small portions of tiny treats.

Just a few hours after the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, the first committee was appointed to design a seal for the United States. After undergoing numerous changes, on June 20, 1782, the seal was officially adopted by the Continental Congress.

The Great Seal of the United States is used to authenticate certain documents issued by the U.S. federal government. The expression "Great Seal" is used both for the physical seal itself (which is kept by the U.S. Secretary of State) and for the design impressed upon it. The Great Seal was first used publicly in 1782.
