Enamel and diamond maple leaf brooch

In 1901, King George and Queen Mary embarked on a lengthy tour of Canada and while in Montreal she was presented with this beautiful enamel and diamond maple leaf brooch.

A book published to commemorate the tour records, “Shortly atter dinner on Wednesday, a simple ceremony took place at Lord Strathcona’s residence, being the presentation to Their Royal Highnesses of mementos of their visit to Montreal by the members of the Citizen’s Reception Committee. That to the Duchess which was presented by Lady Strathcona and Mrs. Drummond, consisted of a spray of maple leaves wrought in gold and enamel and set with diamonds and pearls.

A newspaper of the time reported, “The jewel consists of a spray of six maple leaves mounted with diamonds. No two of the maple leaves are alike in form and colour. They are of solid eighteen-carat gold, beautifully enameled in delightfully delicate tones.”

Queen Elizabeth II inherited the brooch from Queen Mary but only wore it publicly twice, both during a visit to Canada in 2010. It has presumably since been inherited by King Charles III.

In 1939, King George VI commissioned this brooch in the form a Canadian Sugar Maple Leaf, from Asprey as a gift to his wife Queen Elizabeth, ahead of their State Visit to Canada.

The brooch is set with brilliant and baguette cut diamonds in platinum.

Queen Elizabeth II also loaned the brooch to the then Duchesses of Cornwall and Cambridge for their visits to Canada.
