A white ceramic plate printed with the 1967 Canada Centennial maple-leaf emblem, built from a grid of colorful triangles, held over a wooden table.
Summary
Two hands hold up a white ceramic plate printed with the official 1967 Canada Centennial emblem, a maple-leaf silhouette built from a grid of colored triangles, over a wooden table.
Visual description
A round white plate is held with both hands centered over an out-of-focus wooden tabletop. The plate's design reads "CANADA CENTENNIAL" in a thin sans-serif arc above the emblem, which is a stylized maple leaf formed from nine equal triangles in green, orange, teal, and mustard, arranged in a symmetrical pattern with a red vertical stem beneath it dividing the years "1867" and "1967" printed at the bottom of the design.
Key takeaway
Reducing a national emblem (the maple leaf) to a simple grid of colored triangles turns a complex symbol into a flat, geometric mark that still reads instantly at small scale, here on a plate rim.
Reuse notes
A useful reference for anniversary or heritage branding that wants a geometric, mid-century approach to a traditional symbol. The triangle-grid construction technique translates well to badges, stamps, or commemorative packaging beyond tableware.
