Design:

A miniature reproduction of the Canadian Maple Leaf brooch is the commanding focal point in this design. It measures 25x25mm with more than 100 individually set, white natural zircons. The brooch is framed by an ornate border by Canadian artist Jan Poynter. It symbolizes the shared history between the United Kingdom and Canada with a repeating pattern of Tudor roses, thistles, shamrocks and maple leaves, each a key botanical element in the Royal Arms of Great Britain, Wales, Northern Ireland and Canada. The iconic five-point Tudor rose, with its inner and outer petals, provides a framework for a traditional Celtic braid treatment that represents the tradition and heritage that are the heart of Canadian settlement and identity. And on the obverse, the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt engraved on a background of leaves echoing the silhouette of the famous Canadian Maple Leaf Brooch.
