Silver Medal or Jewel

Classification:- Lodge/Chapter Etc.; Members

Country of Origin:- England -

Description

In the form of an oval plate, having the “three moveable jewels” (square, level, and plumb rule) artistically arranged; the square inverted at foot, the arms being on either side of the head of the level, resting on the base of which is the plumb rule above. From the centre wholly surrounding the tools are rays. The tools are fixed on the plate by screws at back. The jewel has been gilded, but now scarcely to be discerned. It partakes of the style of the Grand Steward’s Lodge jewels, Nos. 13 and 14, and possibly was one used therein at an earlier date. Jewels of a somewhat similar character were adopted many years ago for Prov. Grand Stewards, but this medal or jewel is most unlikely to be one of a Provincial set, as it contains no legend or descriptionto connect it with a Prov. Grand Lodge.
