***Unique/Rare*** Double headed Ouroboros Ring/ Ancient Masonic Builders - Ring

Double-Headed Ouroboros Ring/ Ancient Masonic Builders **References in my other Listing with Illustrations of Masonry - book not included** I would like to share with you one of my private collections, the Ancient Builders Ring. Its design lends itself to being displayed as a ring. Where might we find a reference to the ouroboros in Masonic life? The legend of the Master Builder signifies the commencement of a Brother’s life as a Master Mason and echoes the theme of the ouroboros, symbolising the transition from the old to the new and the symbolic existence of a new Master Mason. Considering the universality that our lodge room embodies, we perceive the planetary revolutions of the sun and moon as observed from Earth. We witness the perpetual and cyclical nature of day and night. Consequently, the ouroboros encircles the lodge room and the Earth in a circular plane situated between east and west. Where within the lodge room do these individual events, which involve the candidate, transpire? Between east and west. Is this merely a coincidence? **Objects:** All the objects included in this auction originate from my family’s private used collection, which has been passed down through generations of true Masons. **Important Information:** Please be aware that there is a possibility of damage, delays, or additional fees associated with local courier transportation, customs checks, and taxes. The recipient of the parcel is responsible for paying the applicable customs charges, duties, or taxes in the destination country. **Parcel Handling:** Parcels will be held by customs until any outstanding payments have been made. Any payments not received may result in the parcel being returned, delayed, or, in extreme cases, destroyed. If the parcel is destroyed, no refund will be issued. **Refused or Unpaid Parcels:** Refused or unpaid parcels will be returned to me, and it may take up to a month for me to resend them back to the buyer. If the full postage fees are not paid again, the parcel will not be send and case will be reported to Catawiki. **Missing or Incorrect Address Parcels:** Parcels with missing or incorrect addresses will be returned to me. This process may take up to a month, and only a resend to the buyer will be possible if the full postage fees are paid.
