Canada Maple Leaf Red White Canadian Flag Colours 3 Inch Round Button

Cheerful bright red stylized maple leaf in a red circle. The maple leaf has been a symbol of Canada since the mid-1800s. French settlers chose a green maple leaf as their emblem, while English settlers chose a gold leaf, which can still be seen in the coat of arms of Ontario. Over a hundred years later the stylized red leaf appears on the flag to represent the ten native species of maple in Canada. This simple yet bold design is a wonderful souvenir of Canada, or for Canadian residents and Canadians abroad, for good luck, for Canada Day or any day! You can get these fun fashion accessories in different sizes from colossal to tiny - if you try the design on square then go back to round, it will default to the smallest size; make sure you have what you want when ordering. Design by Sylvia Chaume, Canada. Happy Daze!
