More than a piece of jewellery, this is an object of identity and achievement, created to commemorate a lifetime of dedication to Freemasonry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe front is centred with a finely executed gold Masonic emblem mounted over a rich bloodstone tablet, framed by a bold twisted rope border that gives the piece exceptional presence. The fob pivots within its mount, allowing the reverse to be displayed, where a deeply engraved presentation inscription records it being awarded to Superintendent W.M. Davies by the Magistrates of the Newcastle Division upon his retirement after 39 years of service in April 1924.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBloodstone has long been associated with strength, courage and fidelity, making it a particularly fitting material for Masonic jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fob remains in excellent antique condition with light age-related wear consistent with careful preservation. The bloodstone is free from damage, the gold mount retains crisp definition throughout, and the swivel mechanism operates smoothly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Art Deco, 1923 (Presented in 1924)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHallmarks: Birmingham assay office, 18ct Gold with date letter 'y' for the year 1923.
