Mesikon Coat of Arms Sticker: A Heraldic Treasure

This sticker presents the official coat of arms of Mesikon (also spelled Mäsiikon), a former municipality in the Swiss canton of Zürich. The design is a striking example of heraldry, a visual language steeped in history and symbolism.

A Golden Field and Noble Hound

The central element of the design is a black, rampant hound. This powerful creature, depicted in a standing posture with forepaws raised, is set against a golden (yellow) background. The contrast between the dark hound and the radiant field immediately draws the eye, creating a visually compelling image.

Symbolism in Color and Detail

The heraldic description provides key details that enrich the design's meaning. The hound's tongue is rendered in red (gules), as is its collar, highlighting specific elements and conveying additional layers of symbolism. While the precise symbolism of these colors would depend on the historical context and the municipality's interpretation, red often represents qualities such as courage, valor, and strength. The presence of a hound could denote loyalty, vigilance, or a connection to hunting, all potential reflections of Mesikon's character.

A Public Domain Legacy

This striking emblem, created by Gerhard Bräunlich, is sourced from Hans Rüegg's work. The coat of arms, a symbol of Mesikon's identity, is now available to be admired and displayed in this sticker form.

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.
