28th Degree Scottish Rite Collar – All White Moire with Eye and Rays

Description

28th Degree Scottish Rite Collar – All White Moire with Eye and Rays

All white worn at the collar of the 28th Degree carries the specific meaning the Knight of the Sun places at this rank. Prince Adept — the title the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite gives to the brother who has reached this degree — works within a degree that places light and its source at the centre of its teaching. White moire at eleven centimetres wide forms the complete collar from neck point to chest V, and the eye and rays embroidered at the V-point carries the degree’s central symbol in the position the Knight of the Sun ceremony places it. No other Scottish Rite degree wears an all-white moire collar with this specific emblem configuration.

The eye embroidered at the collar point is the All-Seeing Eye of the degree working — the symbol the 28th Degree places at the centre of its teaching about divine light and the Prince Adept’s obligation to pursue that light within the Scottish Rite system. Gold and blue thread works the eye and the radiating rays extending outward from it, giving the emblem its depth against the white moire ground. Against all-white fabric, the gold thread reads with the contrast the degree demands — warm metallic against pure white, the combination that the Knight of the Sun places at the collar of the Prince Adept.

White moire ribbon at eleven centimetres carries the watered surface pattern that shifts under Supreme Council and Scottish Rite chapter lighting as the officer moves. Against an all-white collar that shift is subtle — the pattern reads as a surface variation in the white rather than as a colour change. But it is there, and it is what separates this collar from a plain white ribbon collar of the same dimensions. A visiting Scottish Rite officer who knows the degree will notice the moire surface. A visitor unfamiliar with the degree will notice only the white. Both readings are correct for the Knight of the Sun.

White back construction means the reverse of the collar sits clean against white dress shirt or ceremonial robe without the colour contrast that a dark-backed collar creates at the edges. The complete collar reads as white from every angle — face and reverse — which is the construction the all-white degree collar requires.

A swivel hook at the base V-point allows a jewel to be attached and to hang vertical throughout the ceremony working regardless of the direction the officer moves. The swivel mechanism prevents the jewel from fixing at a sideways angle during procession.

Every detail of this 28th Degree Scottish Rite Collar is built for the Prince Adept who wears the Knight of the Sun degree with the understanding of what the all-white and the eye and rays carry within the Scottish Rite system.
