Description

Scottish Rite 4th Degree Regalia Set – Machine Embroidery Black

Stepping into the Secret Master degree marks the first step beyond the three symbolic degrees, and the Scottish Rite 4th Degree Regalia Set worn at that threshold should reflect the gravity of that passage. This set pairs a black moire ribbon-bordered apron with a sky blue moire collar, both carrying machine embroidered degree emblems that identify the Secret Master with precision and consistency across every stitch.

The apron body is white satin, measuring 14 inches high by 16 inches wide, with a wide black moire ribbon border running the full perimeter of both the apron body and the blue V-shaped flap. Black moire ribbon carries a woven optical texture that distinguishes it from plain grosgrain, shifting between a flat finish and a quiet sheen depending on how the light falls during degree ceremony. The blue flap rises cleanly at center, and at its apex a gold sunburst emblem is machine embroidered with the radiant pattern associated with the Secret Master degree’s symbolic light.

On the white satin center panel, the letter Z appears in gold machine embroidery, the degree’s most direct written symbol. Below it, a laurel branch wreath curves in green thread, its two arcs meeting beneath the Z with small red accent details marking the points. The machine embroidery on both the flap and the center panel sits flat against the satin without puckering, each stitch consistent in tension and direction. That consistency is the particular strength of machine embroidery on degree regalia sets, where multiple pieces must match exactly across the full set.

The sky blue moire collar carries the same Z emblem and green branch motif in machine embroidery, tying both pieces of the set together visually without requiring the wearer to coordinate separately. A clip on the collar provides secure attachment for the Secret Master jewel, keeping it centered during 4th degree ritual without shifting. The collar’s sky blue moire ribbon matches the apron flap in tone, making both pieces read as a unified set when worn together in the Lodge room.

An adjustable belt closes with a gold-plated snake fitting, fitting a range of waist sizes without modification. The rear of the apron carries soft padding and a pocket within the lining. The reverse face includes skull bones and teardrops printed in white, a detail specific to the Secret Master degree tradition. The lining sits smooth against formal attire throughout the ceremony.

The gold-plated snake fitting holds its closure through the full Secret Master degree ceremony without loosening from the belt backing.

Product Features

Gold Machine Embroidered Z Emblem on White Satin Panel

The Secret Master’s letter Z is machine embroidered in gold thread on the white satin center panel, sitting cleanly above a green laurel wreath with red accent details that together form the degree’s core visual insignia.

Gold Sunburst Machine Embroidered on Blue Flap

The blue V-flap carries a gold radiant sunburst at its apex, machine embroidered with consistent stitch tension that holds its bright gold tone against the blue ground through regular Scottish Rite ceremony use.

Finest Quality Black Moire Ribbon Border

Wide black moire ribbon borders frame the full perimeter of the apron and flap, its optical weave pattern providing a formal edge distinction that reads clearly during 4th degree ritual.

Sky Blue Moire Collar with Machine Embroidered Z Emblem

The matched sky blue moire collar carries the same Z emblem and green branch motif as the apron, creating a unified regalia set appearance with a clip for secure jewel attachment during Secret Master ceremony.

Skull Bones and Teardrops Printed on Reverse

The apron reverse carries skull bones and teardrop details printed in white, a degree-specific design element that connects the piece directly to the Secret Master degree’s symbolic tradition.

Adjustable Belt with Gold-Plated Snake Fitting

The belt adjusts to fit a range of waist sizes and closes with a gold-plated snake fitting that locks securely for the full duration of 4th degree Scottish Rite ceremony.

Rear Pocket with Soft Padding
