Wapen van Oostende (Coat of Arms) Vinyl Decal - Design Description

A Symbol of Maritime Heritage and Civic Pride

This decal showcases the official Coat of Arms of Ostend, a historic city on the Belgian coast. The design is a vibrant representation of the city's rich history and enduring spirit, rendered in a striking heraldic style.

Visual Elements and Their Meaning

The core of the design is a silver (white) shield, providing a clean and elegant backdrop. Across the shield stretches a bold red chevron, symbolizing strength and protection, a testament to Ostend's resilience throughout history.

Below the chevron, three black anchors are prominently displayed. These anchors are the most defining element, directly referencing Ostend's identity as a major seaport and fishing hub, a connection deeply rooted in the North Sea. Their placement emphasizes the city's reliance on and prominence of seafaring.

Above the shield, a golden mural crown, shaped like a castle, sits proudly, signifying Ostend's status as an important municipality and hinting at the city's fortified past.

Completing the emblem, two majestic golden sea lions flank the shield, their presence evoking Ostend's maritime power and unwavering loyalty, reinforcing the motto “Semper Fidelis” ("Always Faithful").

A Timeless Design

This meticulously crafted design incorporates iconic heraldic elements, echoing a rich legacy dating back to the 16th century. Each element combines to create a powerful and visually engaging emblem, a timeless piece of artwork that reflects the pride and heritage of Ostend.

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.
