Dolcedo-Stemma (Italy) Vinyl Decal - Design Overview

This decal presents the official coat of arms, or "stemma," of Dolcedo, a municipality in the province of Imperia, Liguria, Italy. The design is a vibrant and symbolic representation of the region's heritage and natural resources.

Visual Elements and Composition

The primary element is the shield, the background of which is a striking shade of blue, known as azure. Dominating the shield's center is an uprooted olive tree, depicted with its roots prominently displayed, conveying the "sradicato" aspect. The olive tree’s leaves are rendered in lush green, while the trunk and roots are presented in natural earthy tones of brown, and other realistic shades.

At the top of the shield, in a position known as the "chief," is a horizontal band of silver or white (argent). Centered on this band is a prominent red cross (gules).

The design is typically completed with external ornamentation, which is representative of an Italian "Comune" (municipality). These often include a mural crown and flanking branches of laurel and olive, which are also visible.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design's imagery speaks volumes about Dolcedo's identity. The central olive tree immediately references the region’s long-standing connection to olive cultivation and the production of olive oil, a cornerstone of the local economy and culture.

The red cross on a silver background, positioned at the top of the shield, is a nod to the historical influence of the Republic of Genoa, a dominant power in the region. This element is symbolic of Ligurian heritage and civic identity.

The overall use of color—the azure blue background, the green of the olive leaves, and the natural tones of the trunk and roots—emphasizes the beauty of the local landscape and the importance of agricultural heritage within this picturesque Italian valley.

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.
