Wreath, War Widows' Association of Great Britain, 2018 (c)

Plastic and fabric commemorative cross manufactured by the Royal British Legion, 2018 (c). Artificial flowers (white chrysanthemums) arranged to form a cross-shaped wreath with poppies arranged at the centre, interspersed with artificial sprigs of rosemary.

This cross is a duplicate of the one laid on behalf of the War Widows' Association at the Cenotaph in London in 2018. The poppies and rosemary both signify remembrance, and white chrysanthemums signify peace.
