This fascinating 9K gold orb may appear to be a simple pendant at first glance, but it hides a remarkable secret. With a knowing touch, the sphere opens to reveal six hinged pyramidal panels that unfold into a cross engraved with traditional Masonic symbols—tools, stars, squares, and emblems of craft, secrecy, and ritual. These intricate motifs represent the core values of Freemasonry: truth, integrity, morality, and charity.
The gold and silver panels are beautifully engraved and articulated, folding in and out with smooth precision, while the domed exterior closes securely to conceal the cross within. Worn close to the heart, it once whispered allegiance to a brotherhood, its meaning invisible to the uninitiated.
Today, wear this fascinating and secretive piece among your layered necklaces for an unexpected touch of mystery and dimension.
