Försvarets tolkskola Vapen (Coat of Arms) Decal

Design Overview

This decal presents the striking coat of arms of Försvarets tolkskola, the Swedish Defence Interpreter School. The design is a vibrant and symbolic representation of the school's mission and values, rendered in a classic heraldic style.

Visual Elements and Symbolism

The central element is a shield divided vertically. One half is gold, the other blue, a combination of traditional Swedish heraldic colors. This color scheme immediately roots the design in Swedish national and military heritage.

The shield is emblazoned with two ravens. These birds, crucial to the design, face each other, but with a clever twist. The raven on the gold field is blue, and the raven on the blue field is gold. This contrasting color arrangement is a visual representation of balance and communication. The ravens’ beaks and legs are a vibrant red, adding a touch of bold contrast.

Crowning the entire composition is a royal crown. This detail marks the emblem as a formal military heraldic design, connecting it with other units within the Swedish Armed Forces.

Meaning and Representation

The ravens are the core of the symbolism. They represent wisdom, memory, and thought – all critical skills for an interpreter. In Norse mythology, ravens were strongly associated with Odin. This connection to a powerful historical figure speaks to the weight and meaning of words.

The overall design therefore embodies the school’s motto, “Words are our weapons”, emphasizing the power of language and intellect in military intelligence and linguistic training. The interplay of colors and the stately imagery make the coat of arms a potent visual statement.

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.
