Provincial Arms of Ireland 1651 - Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal Design

This vinyl decal features a meticulously rendered representation of the Provincial Arms of Ireland as they appeared in 1651. The design captures the heraldic emblems used to denote the four historic provinces of Ireland: Leinster, Munster, Connacht, and Ulster, during the turbulent era of the Cromwellian conquest.

The Four Provincial Shields

The artwork showcases the four distinct shields, each rich with symbolism:

  • Leinster: A green field (Vert) proudly displays a gold harp (Or) with silver strings (Argent), a symbol of Ireland and specifically associated with the province during the 17th century.
  • Munster: A blue field (Azure) presents three gold crowns (Or), arranged two over one. These crowns allude to the province's historical ties to Anglo-Norman administration and the Kingdoms of Thomond and Desmond.
  • Connacht: A quartered design, per pale Argent and Sable. The dexter chief features a displayed eagle, while the sinister base displays a dexter hand couped fessways. This design represents the ruling families and the dual heritage (Gaelic and Anglo-Norman) of Connacht.
  • Ulster: A gold field (Or) bearing a red cross (Gules) and an inescutcheon Argent bearing a black right hand (dexter hand) couped Sable. The Red Hand of Ulster is a historic emblem linked to the O’Neill dynasty and the province itself.

Arrangement and Historical Context

The design is typically arranged in the traditional quartered format: Ulster (top left), Connacht (top right), Leinster (bottom left), and Munster (bottom right). This arrangement reflects the common display of these arms on maps, military orders, and official documents of the era.

The design pays homage to a critical period in Irish history and serves as a visual testament to the regional identities that persevered through the Cromwellian era.

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.
