Start your own collection of Crown Jewels, beginning with
this uniquely Canadian brooch.
A gift from the people of Canada, the exquisite Sapphire Jubilee
Snowflake Brooch was presented to Queen Elizabeth II in 2017 to
mark the 150th anniversary of Canadian confederation and the
65th anniversary of her reign, her Sapphire Jubilee as Queen of
Canada.
A one-of-a-kind brooch inspired by a snowflake as a
representation of the Canadian Arctic is the first bejewelled piece
to be showcased in our exciting new Crown Jewels series. Its
likeness is captured on the reverse of this 99.99% pure silver coin,
where the rhodium-plated embellishment’s cast elements and
royal blue glass stones highlight the beauty and intricacy of the
diamond-and-sapphire brooch’s design.
First in a series of precious Crown Jewels.
