Pembroke College Cambridge Shield Vinyl Decal: Design Description

This vinyl decal showcases the heraldic emblem of Pembroke College, one of the oldest colleges at the University of Cambridge. The design is a direct representation of the college's coat of arms, a symbol rich in historical and symbolic meaning.

The Shield: A Visual Summary

The central element of the design is the shield itself. The field is colored Gules (red), providing a bold and striking backdrop for the other elements. A prominent cross Argent (white/silver) divides the shield into quadrants.

The most distinctive feature of the design is the inclusion of a Lion Rampant Or (gold) in the first quarter of the shield. This powerful heraldic symbol, a lion depicted rearing on its hind legs, signifies strength, courage, and regality. Its placement within the cross creates a focal point of visual interest and further enhances the design's complexity.

The entire shield is enclosed within a bordure Sable (black border), adding a sense of structure and definition to the design. This border helps to contain the elements within and further emphasizes the coat of arms.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design, particularly the inclusion of the cross, reflects Pembroke College's Christian foundation. The cross serves as a powerful symbol of faith and devotion, resonating with the college's historical roots and its motto, "In the cross is our salvation." The inclusion of the lion rampant, a symbol of strength and power, likely represents the college’s commitment to academic excellence and its prominent position within the University of Cambridge.

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.
