Whether you are participating in a ritual in Sheffield or attending a provincial gathering in Leicester, this collar provides the tarnish-resistant links and reinforced velvet foundation required for a stable and formal fit.

The Technical Synopsis

This English Scottish Rite collar is engineered as a heavy-gauge chain assembly, featuring 16 high-relief symbolic links joined by reinforced circular rings. The chain is mounted onto a high-density blue velvet backing that follows the anatomical curve of the shoulders. The assembly is finalized with a specialized jewel attachment hook at the apex and a non-slip lining to ensure the metalwork remains centered during complex ceremonial floor work.

Functional Gains & Performance

• Symbolic Linkage: Each of the 16 links is cast with high-relief iconography specific to the English Scottish Rite, ensuring total ritual alignment.

• Ergonomic Load Distribution: The blue velvet backing is widened at the shoulders to distribute the weight of the metal chain, preventing fatigue during extended sessions.

• Color-Fast Foundation: The blue velvet is treated for depth and saturation, providing a sharp contrast that makes the gold plating highly visible under lodge lighting.

• Jewel Stability: Features a high-tension swivel hook at the base, designed to secure heavy Rose Croix jewels without the risk of detachment or sagging.

Build Quality & Material Science

The assembly uses Tarnish-Resistant Gold Plating, High-Density Blue Velvet, and Reinforced Metal Alloy. It is more durable than standard lightweight chains because each link is physically stitched to the velvet backing at multiple points to prevent the “clanking” or shifting of metal, giving a neat, formal look to the wearer. The gold plating is applied via an electrochemical process to ensure it resists the oils and acids typically found in human skin.

The Competitive Advantage

Generic chain collars often use thin, hollow-backed links that bend easily. This version utilizes:

1. Solid-Core Metallic Links providing a weighted, professional feel that hangs with a natural, authoritative drape.

2. Reinforced Velvet Backing which prevents the metal chain from coming into direct contact with white ritual shirts, protecting your clothing from metallic friction.

3. High-Relief Casting ensuring that the intricate symbols on each link are sharp and legible from a distance.
