Rosewood, at 8.25 inches — the right scale for a desk piece or display rather than a working floor. The 4.9 rating comes from only 24 buyers, so treat it as promising rather than proven.

Details

Wooden Plumb Square and Rule Masonic Toolset Handcrafted Wooden Masonic…

Buying guide

Before you buy: Masonic Lodge Supplies

What the Lodge buys, and what an officer buys

Most of this shelf is bought by a Lodge replacing a forty-year-old set, or by a Brother replacing the one piece that went missing. If you are buying for the Lodge, ask the Secretary or the Worshipful Master first. Lodges often have a jurisdiction-approved supplier, and a piece that does not match the rest of the set will be noticed.

Gavels

The Master’s gavel is used to govern the Lodge, and a presentation gavel with an engraved band is a traditional gift for a Worshipful Master at the end of his year. Many listed gavels are sold as judges’ and chairmen’s gavels; a plain, well-made one is entirely appropriate. The common gavel is also an Entered Apprentice working tool, which is a different thing.

Bibles on the altar

In most American Lodges the Holy Bible is the Volume of the Sacred Law on the altar, one of the three great lights, and many Lodges present a Masonic edition to each new Master Mason. Lodges with members of other faiths may open on other volumes as well. Ask before buying one for a Lodge or a candidate, since the presentation edition may already be provided.

Officer jewels and collars

An officer’s jewel identifies the office, not the man: the Lodge owns it and passes it on each year. See officers’ jewels and the Lodge officers section for what each office does.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good gift for a Worshipful Master?

An engraved presentation gavel is the traditional one; a good pen set or a framed Lodge chart also work. A Past Master jewel or apron is usually presented by the Lodge, so check before buying one. See gifts for a Grand Lodge officer for more.

Should I buy my own officer jewel?

Usually not. Officer jewels and collars are normally Lodge property and passed to whoever holds the office. Ask the Secretary first.

What Bible is used in a Masonic Lodge?

In most American Lodges, the Holy Bible, often the King James Version, as the Volume of the Sacred Law. Some Lodges also open on other sacred texts for members of other faiths. Practice varies by jurisdiction.

Customs differ between Grand Lodges and between the appendant bodies. Your Lodge Secretary is the authority for your jurisdiction. We do not sell or ship anything: catalog links go to Amazon, where current details live.
