Arms of Christchurch Town Council (England) - Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

A Heraldic Masterpiece

This vinyl decal showcases the intricate and historically rich Coat of Arms of Christchurch Town Council, a vibrant representation of the Dorset town's heritage and civic pride. The design is a visual narrative, steeped in symbolism and meticulously crafted to tell the story of Christchurch's past.

Key Design Elements and Symbolism

The central element, the shield, is dominated by an ermine background, signifying the town's prestigious Royal Borough status from the time of King Alfred. A prominent red chevron cuts across the shield, representing protection and the strong historical ties to the Church.

Overlapping the chevron is a blue pall, a Y-shaped figure, echoing the Christian faith that played a crucial role in shaping Christchurch. At the heart of the design, a cross formy, a cross with flared arms, reinforces this religious significance.

Flanking the cross are two golden salmon, depicted swimming towards each other (naiant respectant), a clear nod to the town's proximity to water and its natural environment. The gold coloring lends a touch of elegance and importance to this key symbolic representation.

The crest is just as detailed. It features a mural crown, a gold crown with battlements, representing the town's fortified status. Emerging from the crown is the upper storey of Christchurch Priory's tower, rendered with precision to accurately show a cornerstone of the town's heritage. A Chi Rho monogram, the Christian symbol, can be seen in the center of the crown.

Finally, the design is supported by two regal lions. These lions are guardant, staring forward, and embody the virtues of courage and strength. They wear Saxon crowns, acknowledging the town's Anglo-Saxon roots, and rest their paws on the stump of a leafy oak tree, symbolizing endurance and a connection to the natural world.

This striking Coat of Arms is a testament to Christchurch's enduring history and a captivating work of heraldic art.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
