Rather than reproducing the full figurative composition, the scarf focuses on a carefully chosen section of the glass. \u003cbr\u003eRed poppies form a clear point of focus, drawing on its established place in New Zealand commemoration, while surrounding colour, texture, and pattern reflect the material qualities of the original stained glass. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stained glass was designed by Frederick Vincent Ellis (1892–1961) for Roy W. Miller of Miller Studios, Dunedin, and was fabricated and installed in Auckland by Phillips \u0026amp; Impey under the supervision of Museum architect R. F. Draffin. \u003cbr\u003eEllis was an English-born World War I veteran who later settled in New Zealand and became one of the country’s leading stained glass designers, particularly known for memorial work. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReimagined as a lapel pin, this detail offers a refined and understated way to connect with a significant work of remembrance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKa maumahara tonu tātou ki a rātou \u003cbr\u003eWe will remember them\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dynamic Gifts NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45604265033919,"sku":"325452","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0355\/4193\/files\/WorldWarIIHallofMemoriesLapelPin_Poppydesign1.jpg?v=1777523277","url":"https:\/\/store.aucklandmuseum.com\/products\/world-war-ii-hall-of-memories-lapel-pin-poppy-design","provider":"Auckland Museum Online Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
