XIX Cantone Coat of Arms Sticker - Design Overview

This vinyl kiss-cut decal showcases a striking piece of Swiss history: the coat of arms representing the "XIX Cantone" – the 19 cantons of Switzerland during the Mediation period (1803-1814).

Visual Elements

The design centers around a powerful image: an armed Old Swiss soldier. This figure stands as a symbol of strength and protection. The soldier's presence is a visual testament to the unity and defense of the Swiss Confederation during this pivotal period.

The soldier holds a shield, the focal point of which is the inscription "XIX. Kantone". This bold text clearly identifies the specific historical context and emphasizes the collective identity of the 19 cantons. The inscription's prominent placement draws the viewer's eye and immediately establishes the emblem's significance.

Encircling the entire composition is the inscription "Schweizerische Eidgenossenschaft. 1803." This phrase, which translates to "Swiss Confederation. 1803," anchors the design in its historical roots, commemorating the year the Mediation Act was established, signifying the beginning of this unique period in Swiss history.

Meaning and Symbolism

The "XIX Cantone" emblem is a potent symbol of a significant reorganization in Swiss governance. It represents a move toward greater centralization and unity, under the influence of Napoleon Bonaparte. The soldier symbolizes the armed forces and defense of the Confederation as a whole.

The depiction of the 19 cantons on the shield signifies the embracing of these new and diverse regions under a singular banner. Displaying this coat of arms is more than just a visual display; it's a connection to a specific moment in Swiss history when the nation reformed and redefined itself.

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.
