Knights of St. Andrew Scottish Rite English Regulation Collar Green

Description

Knights of St. Andrew Scottish Rite English Regulation Collar Green

Scottish Masters of St. Andrew rank sits among the most distinguished positions within Scottish Rite degree work, and the collar that marks it follows an English Regulation construction standard that has remained consistent through generations of Lodge of Perfection practice. This Knights of St. Andrew Scottish Rite English Regulation Collar runs four inches wide at the green center field, finished with three-eighth inch scarlet strips along each side edge, a red rosette positioned just above the point, a stitched metal hook for collar attachment, and a clip for jewel placement.

Four inches of green center field creates the collar width that English Regulation Scottish Rite officer dress specifies for this rank. Green carries the color designation that Knights of St. Andrew tradition assigns to Scottish Masters within the degree color system, and the field width at four inches produces the drape and presence across the shoulders that a narrower collar construction cannot achieve under Lodge of Perfection ceremonial conditions. The collar lies flat against the body in the V-drape that English Regulation collar geometry requires, with the point falling at the correct position on the chest for officer standing during degree work and formal procession.

The scarlet strips run three-eighths of an inch along each side edge of the green center field. That precise measurement is not decorative variation. It follows the English Regulation specification that separates a correctly constructed Knights of St. Andrew collar from a generic green collar without rank identification. Scarlet against green at that strip width reads as the rank signal it carries within Scottish Rite ceremonial dress without requiring close inspection from officers on the Lodge floor.

A red rosette sits just above the point of the collar. That placement follows the positional standard that Knights of St. Andrew collar tradition has maintained, and the rosette color coordinates directly with the scarlet edge strips, creating a collar where every non-green element reads as one deliberate color statement rather than separate additions. The rosette at that position draws the eye to the collar point during formal Lodge of Perfection ceremony, which is exactly where English Regulation collar design intends the focal element to sit.

A stitched metal hook secures the collar at the neck for attachment. Stitching the hook directly into the collar construction means its position never shifts between wearings, and the collar opens and closes at the same point every time it is worn. A separate clip is fitted for jewel attachment, allowing the Knights of St. Andrew officer to hang the rank jewel at the correct ceremonial position on the collar front without additional hardware that could damage the green surface.

The green center field holds its color depth and surface finish through regular folding and storage across a full season of Lodge of Perfection degree work without the fading at fold lines that lower-quality collar materials develop after repeated use.
