32nd Degree Scottish Rite Cap – Black Cordura Gold Bullion Wings Down Eagle

Description

32nd Degree Scottish Rite Cap – Black Cordura Gold Bullion Wings Down Eagle

Earned through dedication to the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, the 32nd Degree carries a weight that the cap worn to mark it must honor. Black Cordura fabric builds the cylindrical body of this crown cap into a structured form that holds its upright shape through years of reunion and council appearances, never softening at the crown or losing the sharp edge that formal Scottish Rite headwear demands from a brother who has walked the full path to the 32nd Degree.

Gold bullion braid runs in two distinct bands around the full circumference, spaced to divide the black body into clean horizontal sections that read with military precision under lodge lighting. Each band sits flush against the Cordura surface without lifting at the edges, preserving the neat horizontal line that distinguishes properly finished Scottish Rite headwear from lesser-made alternatives. A gold cord stretches across the very top of the cap, anchored at each side by a gold button that holds the cord taut and centered through extended wear.

Dominating the front face, the double-headed eagle with wings positioned down is worked entirely by hand in gold bullion wire. Craftsmen form each feather of the spread wings individually, building the eagle outward from the Cordura surface so the finished emblem sits in relief against the black ground. Gold bullion wire at this weight catches light differently than flat thread, giving the eagle a presence that changes as the brother moves through the reunion room. A purple triangle above the eagle bears the numeral 32, the degree marker that leaves no ambiguity about the standing of the man beneath this cap.

Brothers who attend Scottish Rite reunion regularly understand that headwear quality becomes visible the moment two caps are placed side by side. Hand embroidered gold bullion wire on black Cordura represents the construction standard that serious 32nd Degree members seek when they want a cap that lasts beyond a single reunion cycle and looks correct at every Scottish Rite occasion from valley meetings to formal degree conferral.

Multiple size options allow every brother to find a fit that sits naturally on the head without requiring adjustment mid-ceremony, a practical consideration that matters across a full evening of Scottish Rite work.

Cord buttons at each side are set firmly into the fabric and hold the gold cord without loosening through repeated handling and storage between reunions.

Product Features

Hand-Embroidered Gold Bullion Wings-Down Double-Headed Eagle

Craftsmen build the 32nd Degree double-headed eagle outward from the black Cordura surface using hand-worked gold bullion wire, creating a relief emblem with feather detail and dimensional depth that flat finishing methods cannot produce.

Purple 32nd Degree Triangle Degree Marker

The purple triangle bearing the numeral 32 positioned above the eagle confirms the wearer’s Scottish Rite degree standing with immediate clarity for every brother in the reunion room.

Dual Gold Bullion Braid Circumference Bands

Two gold bullion braid bands wrap the full cap circumference in parallel horizontal lines, giving the black Cordura body a formal military bearing consistent with the heritage of Scottish Rite officer headwear.

Top Gold Cord Secured by Gold Side Buttons

A gold cord runs taut across the crown of the cap and fastens at each side with a gold button set firmly into the Cordura fabric, a construction detail drawn directly from the Scottish Rite crown cap tradition.

Structured Black Cordura Cylindrical Body

Black Cordura holds the cap’s cylindrical form upright through repeated reunion wear without softening at the crown or losing the clean edge profile that formal Scottish Rite dress requires.
