This fascinating masonic ring from 1986 tells a story of tradition and craftsmanship. Made in the historic city of Birmingham, this ring is a magnificent example of the fine goldsmithing of the time. Crafted from fine 375 gold, the ring stands out with its simple yet impressive design.
An oval ring head sits enthroned in the centre of the ring, which houses a bright cobalt blue enamel disc. This deep blue colour, reminiscent of the vastness of the ocean and the mysteries of the sky, lends the piece of jewellery a magical aura. The traditional symbols of Freemasonry, the square and compass, are set into the enamel in finely engraved gold. These symbols, which symbolise wisdom, strength and beauty, catch the light and reflect it in a subtle yet impressive way.
The transition from the ring head to the ring shank is smooth and elegant, and the band-shaped ring shank ensures that the ring is comfortable to wear. Despite its age, the ring is in excellent condition, a sign of the high-quality workmanship and care that has gone into its manufacture.
This masonic ring is not just a piece of jewellery, but a piece of history that carries the spirit and values of freemasonry within it. It exudes a timeless elegance and is a testament to the master craftsmanship of Birmingham. A truly remarkable artefact that can both honour the past and satisfy modern tastes.
