Oulun lääni (Finland) Coat of Arms Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal: Design Description

This decal showcases the historical coat of arms of Oulun lääni, a former province in Finland. The design is a vibrant representation of the region's heritage, meticulously rendered to capture its heraldic details.

Design Elements

The shield is divided vertically, a technique known as "per pale." A ducal crown, a symbol of Finnish provincial authority, surmounts the shield, signifying the province's status.

The right half of the shield, the dexter side, features the arms of Pohjanmaa (Ostrobothnia). This section is a blue field adorned with six white ermine-like martens, arranged in a pattern of two, two, and two. This element pays tribute to the historical connection between Oulu and Ostrobothnia, as Oulu was once part of that province.

The left half, or sinister side, presents a blue field emblazoned with a two-towered castle rendered in gold. The castle's windows and doors are highlighted in red. This prominent feature is a reference to the town of Kajaani and its historic castle, symbolizing the region's identity and legacy.

Meaning and Symbolism

The coat of arms encapsulates the history and identity of Oulun lääni. The inclusion of the Ostrobothnia arms serves as a direct link to the province's origins. The castle represents Kajaani, a significant town within the province. The colors and arrangement are meticulously chosen according to heraldic tradition, conveying specific historical and symbolic meanings.

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.
