Coat of Arms of Penang (1949-1950) Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal: A Visual Description

This decal features the historically significant Coat of Arms of Penang, as it existed during the Crown Colony period from 1949 to 1950. The design is rich with symbolism, reflecting the island's unique blend of local identity and colonial heritage.

The Shield

The central element is a shield, "barry wavy of eight Azure and Argent." This means the shield is divided into eight alternating horizontal wavy stripes of blue and white (silver). This design represents the sea surrounding Penang, specifically alluding to the straits that separate the island from the mainland.

A gold-colored top band, known as a "chief embattled Or," forms a castle-wall pattern atop the shield. This chief displays a plume of three ostrich feathers, a prominent visual element.

A ribbon is tied around the ostrich feathers in blue ("Azure") with the motto "Ich Dien" in gold letters. This symbolizes the badge of the Prince of Wales, a direct nod to Penang's former name, "Prince of Wales Island."

The Crest

Above the shield, the crest showcases a native areca-nut palm (the "pinang" tree) bearing fruit and leaves, placed atop a small mount. This visual element directly acknowledges the historical origin of Penang's name (Pulau Pinang), emphasizing the island's unique identity.

Additional Element

While this particular version of the coat of arms did not originally include a motto, the coat of arms would adopt the motto "Bersatu dan Setia" (Malay for "United and Loyal") soon after. The inclusion of this motto strengthens the symbolic representation of the coat of arms.

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.
