What are Freemasons Rings?

Posted by JewelleryMen on March 8th, 2013

Freemasons are a fraternal group that was developed in the 16^th and 17^th century in Europe. Since then they have spread to many parts of the world including Scotland, Ireland and the United states of America. They originated amongst the architects and builders of those days who developed skills of geometry and masonry that they built into a code that also included moral guidance. Their most well known emblem is the set square and compass and this is seen on many Masonic jewelry designs of rings, pendants and cufflinks.

What Makes Them Really Special?
Because of the fraternal nature of the Masons it is not uncommon for them to wear their symbols as an sign to others. A well crafted Masonic Ring with a finely engraved or sculpted set square and compass design makes a fine piece of jewelry but is also a sign to others that you are a member of a Masonic Lodge. It is also possible to include other symbol to the design which refer to the specific group or Lodge that the wearer belongs to.

Other Masonic jewelry will take the form of cufflinks and pendants but Masonic Rings are the most widely seen. As they are available in a wide variety of stones and metals, they are also a valuable addition to any smart wardrobe and denote the wearer as a man of taste and style. Worn with a fine pair of matching or complimentary cufflinks they create a great look as well as demonstrating pride in belonging to a group of people that concern themselves with the wellbeing of the community.
