wm5806 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Here's a couple of pictures of some older Past Master collar jewels from (I'm pretty sure) the English Constitution. The one with all the intricate mouldings is hallmarked silver by Spencer and dated 1916, while the other one is unmarked and undated, but almost certainly older than the first.I shall try to find a picture of their modern equivalent, so that even those not familiar with the design can decide which they prefer...[attachmentid=34472] [attachmentid=34473] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wm5806 Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hallmarked Birmingham 1848.Measures 140mm across the outer points of the square.Note the thin border around the problem.[attachmentid=35080] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wm5806 Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Another one!This is hallmarked for London 1888, although presentation inscription is from the 1940s. A further square has been added to it for a second recipient of the same surname (father/son ??), the hinge for which can just be seen protruding either side below the loop.Measures a more modest 120mm across the points.[attachmentid=35081] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
