Coat of Arms of Spain c.1883-1931: Pillars of Hercules Variant - Design Overview

This striking sticker showcases the Coat of Arms of Spain as it appeared during the late Bourbon Restoration period (c. 1883-1931), specifically the Pillars of Hercules variant. The design is a vibrant and detailed representation of Spanish royal and imperial power, brimming with heraldic symbolism.

A Royal Heraldic Tapestry

At the heart of the design lies the shield, a captivating display of heraldic elements. It is divided into quarters, each representing a historic Spanish kingdom: Castile with its castle, LeĂłn with its rampant lion, Aragon with its red pallets, Navarre with its golden chain, and Granada with its pomegranate. An inescutcheon, or small central shield, features the arms of the Bourbon-Anjou dynasty, signified by three golden fleurs-de-lis on a blue field and framed by a red border, representing the ruling monarchy.

Pillars of Power and Maritime Might

Flanking the shield are the majestic Pillars of Hercules, two imposing columns crowned and symbolizing the Straits of Gibraltar. These columns are a potent emblem of Spain's maritime dominance and its explorations across the seas. A scroll, unfurled around the pillars, bears the evocative motto "PLUS ULTRA" – "Further Beyond," signifying Spain's ambition to explore and expand its overseas empire.

Symbols of Sovereignty and Prestige

Crowning the shield is the Spanish Royal Crown, a direct declaration of the Spanish monarch's authority. The inclusion of the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece around the shield speaks to chivalric prestige and dynastic honor, adding another layer of visual richness and historical significance to the design. The absence of conventional supporters further emphasizes the Pillars of Hercules as the defining and symbolic visual support for the arms.

Overall, this design is a rich tapestry of historical significance, dynastic legitimacy, and imperial aspiration, rendered in a classic and compelling heraldic style.

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.
