West Betuwe Wapen (Coat of Arms) Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

This vibrant decal showcases the official coat of arms, or "wapen," of West Betuwe, a municipality in the Netherlands.

Design Elements

The design is centered on a shield, meticulously quartered into four distinct sections, each rich in historical symbolism.

The top-left quadrant, a field of red, proudly displays a number of gold "bezants," or golden discs. These coins pay homage to the heritage of Geldermalsen, one of the founding municipalities.

The top-right section, rendered in gold, features a striking black gate, representing a castle entrance. This element symbolizes the historical city rights of Asperen and Heukelum, while also evoking the numerous castles that once graced the area.

The bottom-left quarter, white with red battlements, incorporates red castellated lines. This design directly references the Van Arkel family and the former arms of Lingewaal, connecting the design to the area's ancestral ties.

The bottom-right quadrant presents a striking pattern of blue and white "pales vair," a pattern of vertical blue stripes with a white "vair" pattern. This element, drawing from the arms of Neerijnen, represents noble families, further highlighting the area's rich history.

Supporting Features

Flanking the shield are two golden lions, serving as "shield-holders." These regal creatures, a nod to the historical city rights of places like Asperen and Heukelum, add a sense of authority and pride to the design.

Meaning and Symbolism

The overall design masterfully integrates historical elements from the three municipalities that make up West Betuwe. It serves as a visual tapestry reflecting the region’s heritage, incorporating castles, noble family heraldry, and symbols from the former municipalities. The golden bezants represent wealth and coins while directly referencing Geldermalsen, further cementing the design's connection to the region’s past.

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.
