Description from the seller

Era-Unknown, Origin-Unknown Masonic Emblem for display…
*Don't know much about this piece as was with me for long time.
Framed in some point by members of my family.

Decorative framed emblem featuring the traditional Freemasonry Square and Compasses surrounding the All-Seeing Eye (an eye within a glowing triangle or radiant glory)
*The Square and Compasses: This is the most universally recognized symbol of Freemasonry. The Square symbolizes morality, honesty, and treating others fairly ("square dealing"). The Compasses symbolize the boundaries of good behavior, virtue, and keeping passions in check.
* Placed in the center, this is a traditional Masonic symbol representing the Great Architect of the Universe (a common term for a supreme being) and serves as a reminder that a person's thoughts and deeds are always observed.

*Masonic medals (or "jewels") symbolize membership, rank, achievement, and commemoration, featuring common symbols like the Square & Compasses (morality), All-Seeing Eye (divine watchfulness), Beehive (industry), or Anchor (hope/immortality) to denote a Mason's journey, service, or specific accomplishments within the fraternity, acting as outward reminders of their dedication and progress.
**Membership Medals: Often feature core symbols like the Square & Compasses, signifying belonging to the Craft.
**Rank & Office Medals: Indicate a Mason's office (e.g., Past Master's Jewel) or degree, sometimes with specific designs like Euclid's 47th Proposition for Past Masters.
**Charity Jewels: Awarded for significant donations, serving as a reminder of philanthropic giving.
**Commemorative Medals: Struck to mark specific events, anniversaries, or installations, similar to coins but with deeper symbolic meaning.


Please note that if you wish to have your parcel sent as a “gift” rather than a “sale,” please inform me. This may result in the avoidance of additional customs fees.
* All of my objects are from my family’s private, used collection by true Masons.

* Please be advised that parcels may be damaged, delayed, or subject to additional fees due to local courier transportation, customs checks, taxes, and other factors.

* The recipient is solely responsible for paying the customs charges, duties, or taxes applicable to the destination country.

* Parcels will be held by customs until any outstanding payments are made. Failure to make payments may result in the parcel being returned, delayed, or, in certain cases, destroyed. If a parcel is destroyed, no refund will be issued.

* Refused, unpaid, or parcels with incorrect addresses will be returned to me. This process may take up to a month, and the parcel will only be resend to the buyer once the full postage fees have been remitted.


Seller's Story

I am selling an excess of my family’s private collection, which has been with the Brotherhood since 1725. I am combining everything into one location, a private temple. Please enjoy some of the Masonic artefacts. “Great experience, wonderful customer care, fast shipping! I would highly recommend this seller for a unique experience and authentic objects”
