Nikolaiev (Soviet Union) Coat of Arms Sticker: A Visual Legacy

This sticker presents a striking visual representation of the Nikolaiev (Mykolaiv) Soviet Coat of Arms, a powerful emblem steeped in symbolism.

A Symphony of Symbols

The design is a bold statement of the city's identity, artfully combining elements that reflect its history, industry, and socialist ideals. Dominating the design, shipbuilding imagery is prominent. A stylized ship or shipyard motif, perhaps with a rising sun in the background, symbolizes Nikolaiev's historical importance as a major shipbuilding center.

The presence of waves or water elements, likely in the form of stylized crests, recognizes the vital role of the Southern Bug River. These flowing forms are integrated to create a sense of dynamic flow and life, visually connecting the city to its maritime heritage.

Industry and Ideology Intertwined

Reflecting the city's industrial prowess, elements such as gears, smokestacks, or cranes are incorporated, subtly highlighting Nikolaiev's contribution to the Soviet Union's industrial capacity. The emblem also embraces socialist ideology. A prominent red star, along with the hammer and sickle, signifies allegiance to the Soviet ideal. Wreaths of wheat encircle the central elements, symbolizing prosperity and the union of workers and farmers.

Color and Composition

The color palette is predominantly red and gold, reflecting the vibrancy of Soviet propaganda, with accents of blue or silver. The overall composition is a dynamic blend of functional symbolism and socialist motifs, a visual testament to a specific moment in time and history.

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.
