Wijdewormer Wapen (Coat of Arms) 1817 - Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

This striking decal presents the historic coat of arms of the former Dutch municipality of Wijdewormer, as officially granted in 1817. The design is a bold statement, rich in symbolic meaning and visual impact.

Design Elements

The central element is a shield, rendered in a vibrant blue ("lazuur" in Dutch heraldry), providing a striking backdrop for the other elements. Dominating the shield is a powerful red sheep (ram), firmly planted and holding a green clover leaf in its mouth. The sheep stands upon a small terrace at the base of the shield, grounding the composition.

At the bottom point of the shield, a sinuous red snake (or eel) adds a final, compelling element to the design. This carefully balanced arrangement creates a visually appealing and historically significant representation.

Symbolism and Meaning

Every element of the Wijdewormer coat of arms carries significant meaning. The red sheep represents the area's vital livestock farming, a cornerstone of the post-reclamation economy. The clover leaf in its mouth likely symbolizes the fertile pastures that supported this agriculture. Finally, the red snake or eel at the bottom pays homage to the fishing industry that thrived before the land was drained, serving as a reminder of the area’s formative history. This iconic design effectively encapsulates the formation, industries, and identity of Wijdewormer.

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.
