Earl of Gowrie COA (Scotland) Vinyl Decal - Design Description

Original Scottish Arms (1581) Design

This decal features the intricate coat of arms granted to the original Earl of Gowrie in Scotland. The design is a complex quarterly shield, reflecting the alliances and inheritances of the Ruthven family. The shield is divided into four sections (quarters): the first and fourth quarters display the Ruthven family's arms, "paly of six argent and gules," represented by vertical stripes of alternating silver (white) and red. The second quarter, represents Cameron of Balledgarno, is "barry of six or and gules" (horizontal stripes of gold and red). The third quarter, represent Halyburton of Dirleton, is "Or, on a bend azure three mascles or" (a gold bend on a blue background with three gold diamond shapes).

Enclosing this complex design is a striking "bordure or, charged with a double tressure flory counter‑flory gules" – a golden border adorned with a double row of fleur-de-lys (stylized lilies) pointing inwards, an honorable augmentation recognizing the achievements of the Earl.

Later UK Arms (1945) Design

This decal features a simplified design, reflecting the later creation of the Earl of Gowrie in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The central element is the shield, showcasing the basic arms of the Ruthven family: "paly of six argent and gules" – vertical stripes of alternating silver (white) and red.

Above the shield, the crest shows "a ram’s head couped sable, armed or"– a black ram's head with gold horns.

Supporting the shield are two figures: a "dexter" (right) ram and a "sinister" (left) goat. Both are depicted in black, "gorged with a coronet and chained or" - wearing gold coronets (small crowns) and chains. This adds visual weight and significance to the design.

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.
