Wapen Amsterdam (Coat of Arms) Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal - Design Description

This decal features the iconic coat of arms of Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, a powerful symbol steeped in history and significance.

Central Shield Design

The heart of the design showcases a red (Gules) shield, emblazoned with a prominent black vertical stripe (Pale Sable). Upon this central stripe are three silver (Argent) Saint Andrew's Crosses (saltorels) arranged in a vertical line.

Heraldic Embellishments

Crowning the shield is the Imperial Crown of Austria, rendered in detailed artistry. This crown, a symbol of honor bestowed upon Amsterdam by Emperor Maximilian I, sits regally atop the shield.

Flanking the shield are two golden lions rampant, posed upright. They stand on a stone pedestal, adding to the visual grandeur and historical depth of the design.

Symbolism and Meaning

The three Saint Andrew's Crosses are a primary symbol, reflecting the city's namesake saint and linking it to the historical Persijn family, lords of Amstelledamme. The black vertical stripe is thought to symbolize the Amstel River, the lifeblood of the city.

The Imperial Crown embodies Amsterdam's historical connection to the Holy Roman Empire, signifying its pivotal role in European politics during the medieval era. It is a visual testament to the city's long-standing importance.

The overall design is a powerful visual statement, a testament to Amsterdam's history, resilience, and unique identity.

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.
