Coat of Arms of Eritrea (1936-1941) Vinyl Decal Design

This vinyl decal showcases the historic Coat of Arms of Eritrea as it appeared during the period of 1936 to 1941, when Eritrea was a governorate within Italian East Africa under Fascist Italy. The design is a powerful blend of colonial and Fascist symbolism, reflecting the political and imperial context of the time.

Design Elements and Representation

The central element is a shield, divided horizontally. The upper section features a red lion passant—a walking lion—set against a silver/white background. This lion is charged with a white star on its shoulder. The lion and star are traditional emblems of the Italian nation and military might.

The lower portion of the shield displays wavy blue and white bars, representing the Red Sea. This design element acknowledges Eritrea's geographic location and its historical connection to the body of water from which it takes its name.

At the top of the shield, a broad red band forms a "chief," a heraldic element containing the Fasces. The Fasces, a bundle of rods with an axe, was the central symbol of the Fascist government and its authority. Olive and oak branches or wreaths likely surrounded the Fasces, signifying strength and victory, common themes in Fascist heraldry.

Symbolism and Meaning

The overall design reflects the merging of traditional colonial imagery with the symbols of Fascist Italy. The lion and star represent the Italian monarchy and nation, while the wavy bars acknowledge Eritrea's geographical identity. The addition of the Fasces and potentially olive and oak wreaths explicitly integrates Eritrea into the ideological framework of Italian imperial rule during the late 1930s. The coat of arms thus conveys a message of Italian dominance and colonial governance.

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.
