Arms of the House of Bentivoglio 1469 (Italy) Vinyl Decal: Design Description

This decal presents the striking heraldic design of the House of Bentivoglio, as it appeared in 1469 during their prominence in Renaissance Bologna. The artwork showcases a classic coat of arms, rich in visual symbolism and historical significance.

The Shield: Core of the Design

At the heart of the design lies the shield, a field of vibrant red (Gules), representing courage, warrior virtues, and the nobility of the Bentivoglio family. Across this bold background, five gleaming gold lozenges (fusils) are arranged in a diagonal bend, running from the upper left to the lower right. These lozenges symbolize honesty, loyalty, and familial wealth, key values associated with the family during that era.

Crest and Mantling: Emblems of Rank and Prestige

Above the shield, the design incorporates a helmet, adorned with a coronet, denoting noble rank. This helmet and crest, which could potentially feature a griffin, lion, or plume of feathers depending on the artistic interpretation, symbolize noble authority and the readiness for defense. Flowing elegantly from the helmet is the mantling, presented in matching red and gold, echoing the colors of the shield. The mantling signifies nobility, protection, and dynastic prestige, completing the visual statement of power and lineage.

A Visual Assertion

This design is a visual testament to the Bentivoglio family's history. It encapsulates their political influence in Bologna, their role as lords, and their assertion of family identity and prestige through the centuries. The strategic placement of the elements—the bold red, the precise arrangement of gold lozenges, and the symbols of authority—create a timeless emblem of a notable Renaissance family.

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.
