Middle Arms of Charles I of Spain - Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal Design

This striking decal presents the meticulously crafted Middle Arms of Charles I of Spain, also known as Charles V as Holy Roman Emperor, as they appeared between 1530 and 1556. It's a vibrant representation of the heraldic achievement of a powerful monarch, reflecting a vast empire built upon both Spanish and European holdings.

A Quartered Shield of Kingdoms

The central element of this design is the shield, richly quartered to display the complex political landscape of the era. The first and fourth quarters feature the symbols of the Spanish kingdoms: Castile, LeĂłn, Aragon, and the claims to territories such as Jerusalem, Naples, and Navarre. The second and third quarters are dedicated to Charles's Burgundian and Austrian heritage, including Austria, the Burgundies, Brabant, Flanders, and Tyrol.

At the base of the shield, the “enté en point” or base point displays the pomegranate, representing the Kingdom of Granada.

Imperial Embellishments

The shield is encircled by the iconic Collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece, a prestigious order of chivalry that underscores Charles's Burgundian ancestry. The bold motto, "PLUS ULTRA," boldly inscribed, speaks volumes about Spain's expansion overseas and the ambition of the imperial reign.

This emblem is often crowned by the imperial crown of the Holy Roman Empire, a testament to Charles V's position. The inclusion of the Pillars of Hercules may be present as well, offering another layer of grandeur.

This design is more than just a coat of arms; it is a visual biography, a condensed history lesson, and a celebration of imperial power rendered in the classic language of heraldry.

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.
