Vintage 9 CT and silver collapsable Masonic ball pendants
A pair of Freemasons orb pendants that click open to expand into a six-paneled crosses. Each orb is made up of six pyramids, which hinge apart to spread into the four arms of a cross. When closed, the orb looks like a simple gold sphere. This was an effective way for an Edwardian gentleman to keep the symbols of the Masons close, but hidden from plain sight - as a fob, for example. Each pyramid is hand engraved with various symbols important to the Freemasons, including the compass, plumb-line, sun and moon, skull and crossbones, pavement, gavel, cross . . . just to name a few. Excellent working order.
Measurements: approx. 10mm orb, opens to 1 1/4" top to bottom
Era: Vintage, 1930s-1950s
Markings: 9 CT + SIL and MADE IN ENGLAND
