Earl of Stair COA (Scotland) Vinyl Decal - Design Overview

This vinyl decal presents the historic Coat of Arms of the Earl of Stair, a Scottish peerage. The design is a vibrant visual representation of the Dalrymple family's heraldry, meticulously crafted to showcase its lineage and history.

Design Elements

The central element of the design is the quartered shield, the cornerstone of the Earl of Stair's coat of arms. The 1st and 4th quarters prominently display the Dalrymple arms: a gold (Or) field featuring a blue (Azure) saltire (St. Andrew's cross) charged with nine golden lozenges. This distinctive combination symbolizes the core of the Dalrymple family identity, the strong visual device of the saltire, and lozenges for distinction.

The 2nd quarter reveals the arms of Dundas of Newliston, represented by a red lion rampant (a lion in a rearing posture) on a silver (Argent) background, signifying alliances and familial ties. The 3rd quarter showcases the Ross of Balneil arms, which features a black and silver checkered chevron between three black water-bougets (leather water carriers), further illustrating the complex web of family connections and inheritance.

Symbolism and Meaning

The overall composition speaks to the Earl of Stair’s heritage and alliances. The various elements, including the quartered design and the incorporation of other family crests, reflect the family's history, land ownership, and kinship. The steadfastness and loyalty are emphasized through the motto "FIRM," adding a layer of nobility to the design.

Additional elements included in other designs are the supporters and the crest. The Supporters, often two red lions, symbolize strength and power. The crest, a rock, symbolizes strength, stability, or a connection to a specific geographical feature.

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.
