Masonic Chain Collar Case White – Cordura Synthetic or Lambskin Leather

Description

A chain collar that arrives at the Lodge room creased, tangled, or carrying the marks of improper storage does not present correctly when the officer puts it on. The collar case is not an accessory. It is the reason the collar looks right on degree night, stated meeting, and installation ceremony. A proper case holds the collar flat, protects the metalwork and ribbon from contact damage during transport, and arrives at the Tyler’s door ready to open rather than requiring adjustment before the officer can dress.

This chain collar case measures 13 inches by 19.5 inches, which is the dimension that accommodates standard Masonic chain collars at the full oval spread without folding or compressing the collar body during storage and transport. The oval case shape follows the collar’s natural form, so the piece sits inside without the forced folding that rectangular cases impose on chain collar metalwork. The hand carry handle sits at the top of the case, balanced for the weight of a chain collar and its attached jewel, allowing the officer to carry the case without it pulling to one side during transport to the Lodge.

Three material options are available. Cordura fabric is the lightweight practical choice, resistant to abrasion and surface marking through regular transport to and from Lodge. Synthetic leather carries a formal exterior finish that presents correctly alongside other regalia cases in the Lodge room without the weight that full leather adds. Lambskin leather is the premium selection, with a surface quality that reflects the value of the chain collar stored inside and the care a senior officer invests in his regalia across a full career of Lodge and chapter service.

Colored soft padded lining finishes the interior of the case, protecting the chain collar and jewel from contact with the hard case shell during transport. The padding absorbs the minor movement that occurs during carrying without allowing the collar metalwork to shift against the interior surface. Lining color provides a finished interior presentation when the case is opened at the Lodge, which is the detail a visiting officer or junior member notices when the chain collar is removed before ceremony.

Excellent quality construction across all three material options means the case exterior holds its form and surface finish through years of regular Lodge transport without the deformation that lower grade case construction develops after a few seasons of use.

Q: What size chain collars does this case accommodate?

A: The case measures 13 inches by 19.5 inches and is sized to accommodate standard Masonic chain collars at full oval spread without folding or compressing the collar body or attached jewel during storage and transport.

Q: What is the difference between the three material options?

A: Cordura fabric is lightweight and abrasion resistant for regular Lodge transport. Synthetic leather offers a formal exterior finish at a practical weight. Lambskin leather provides a premium surface quality that reflects the value of the chain collar stored inside.

Q: Does the padded lining protect the chain collar metalwork during transport?

A: Yes. The colored soft padded lining absorbs movement during carrying without allowing the collar metalwork to contact the hard case shell, protecting both the chain construction and any attached jewel through regular Lodge transport cycles.

Q: Is the carry handle balanced for a chain collar and jewel combined weight?

A: Yes. The hand carry handle is positioned at the top of the case and sized for the combined weight of a standard chain collar and jewel, allowing the officer to carry the case without imbalance during transport to the Lodge.
