Wappen Gesellschaft zu Ober-Gerwern by Robbie Conceptuel (Switzerland) - Design Description

This vinyl kiss-cut decal showcases the heraldic artistry of the Wappen (Coat of Arms) of the Gesellschaft zu Ober-Gerwern, a historic guild from Bern, Switzerland. The design is a powerful and symbolic representation of the guild's heritage and standing within Bernese society.

Key Visual Elements

The central figure is a bold, black lion, depicted in a "rampant" posture, standing on its hind legs. This pose signifies strength and courage, a classic heraldic symbol. The lion is crowned in gold, with a red tongue, adding to its regal presence.

A crucial element is the lion's hold: it clutches a blue "Gerbermesser" (tanning knife) with gold handles in its paws. This tool is a direct reference to the guild's origins as tanners and leather workers, the very craft upon which the guild was founded.

The lion is adorned with a collar of six golden bells. These bells often indicate status and affiliation. This detail adds to the design's prestige and hints at the guild's historical significance within Bern.

Symbolism and Meaning

The black lion, a symbol of power and nobility, combined with the tanning knife, creates a striking visual connection to the guild’s trade and influence. The use of a rampant lion is a direct nod to heraldic conventions of strength and pride.

The silver (white) background, often symbolizing peace and sincerity in heraldry, provides a clear and complementary backdrop, allowing the main elements to stand out.

This striking design is a vibrant testament to the historical legacy and civic importance of the Gesellschaft zu Ober-Gerwern.

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.
