Description

Rare Antique 9ct rose gold half freemasons sphere fob pendant. Wonderful and rare old pendant fob with the freemasonic symbol of the half sphere, trowel, compass and square. The sphere of the fob is set with a carnelian measuring 16mm in diameter. The fob measures 23mm high x 16mm wide. The gold is hallmarked on the trowel for 9ct gold but the date letters are rubbed but probably dates to the Victorian era. The fob has wear to the gold in accordance with age, with a minor dent and some gold has come away on one of the trowels. Overall these things are not particularly noticeable when worn as a pendant or fob. The carnelian stone is in very good condition and does not appear scuffed or worn. Weighs 3.5g.

Photographs are ZOOMED with x5 magnification. SO Please Check Sizes And Weights before purchasing as JEWELLERY IMAGES ARE ENLARGED!! Dark areas are reflections on the gold.

Masonic fobs were traditionally worn by members of the Freemasons attached to a pocket watch chain, often featuring symbolic tools like the square and compass to denote the bearers rank or membership within the fraternity.

These pieces are typically crafted from 9-carat gold, often stamped with historical British hallmarks indicating the assay office, purity, and year of manufacture, frequently paired with gemstone seals such as carnelian or bloodstone.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate hand-engraving, traditional assay marks, appropriate wear consistent with age, and precise execution of intricate symbolic motifs such as globes, pyramids, and working tools.

Antique fobs can be suspended from a modern chain as a statement pendant, worn on a traditional watch chain as a waistcoat accessory, or displayed within a curio cabinet as part of a historical collection.

Preservation involves storing pieces individually in soft pouches to prevent scratching, avoiding harsh chemical dips, and cleaning gently with a soft microfibre cloth and mild soapy water if required.
