Field Poppy Beaded Brooch Pin

This red beaded and embroidered brooch captures the essence of nature’s own creation. Its stem supports a single flower with four bright red petals, each featuring a black spot at the base. The petals gently overlap, accompanied by a bud poised to bloom.

The ancient Egyptians used poppies in tombs to represent eternal rest and renewal. The flower’s natural cycle—fading in winter and blooming again in spring—reflects the idea of resurrection.

The red poppy is closely associated with World War I Remembrance Day, also called Poppy Day, inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields.” It represents soldiers who lost their lives and the sacrifices made during war. Wearing poppies on Memorial Day or Remembrance Day is a way to honor those who died serving their country.

Regardless of your motivation for wearing the Field Poppy brooch, its exquisite craftsmanship and striking appearance are certain to draw admiration from all who encounter it.
