1880(c) .375 Solid Gold(9ct) Master Mason Signet/**reversible- read description
8g / 59 size 
Fair condition, see pictures as they are part of the description.

**This signet belonged to my great great grandfather.  What is peculiar with this signet ?
He added his initials Letters as well as he soldered the reversible part. Why?

Historically, being a member of the brotherhood required a certain level of secrecy. Therefore, reversible/fold up jewellery became a popular means of keeping tradition close “at hand” while keeping a member’s allegiance under wraps- he simply decided to stand up and openly share his Brotherhood belongings, being a proud and open Freemason!
He changed his whole collection this way( around 200 rings)


This Masonic Craft Signet Ring features detailed Masonic compass, square, and G letter

Compass -symbolise several important moral and ethical lessons
Square -being honest and fair
The Letter G: The letter G is often seen in the center of the square and compass symbol. It stands for geometry, the basis for stonemasonry—and, symbolically, for modern Freemasonry.
These are a few of the more basic "rules" for lack of better word for you to know

*Unmarried men are free to wear their ring on their wedding finger or the third ring finger on the opposing hand.
*Married men wear their rings on their third ring finger on the opposing hand.
*The pinky finger is mostly acceptable for wearing your ring and it becomes even more acceptable the further up in the tradition you advance.
*The symbol of the compass should be worn facing towards you only if you are a newer member because it shows you are taking the pledge to the tradition seriously.
*A more advanced or master member can turn their compass legs to face away from their body since they are a symbol of your commitment to outwardly reflect the fraternity.

Note- if you want your parcel to be send as a “gift” not a “sale” (possibility of not paying extra custom fees) please let me know

* All my objects are from my family private used collection by true Masons. 

* Note: Please be aware that parcel could be damage/delay or extra fees can be applied due to local courier transportation/custom checks/taxes etc.

* Recipient is responsible for paying the destination country's customs charges, duties, or taxes.

* Parcels will be held by customs until any outstanding payments are made.
