Perhaps because they exist outside the strictures of officer’s jewels, rings are free to reflect the individuality of their wearer. Here, Joseph Evans, collections manager of the Henry Wilson Coil Library and Museum of Freemasonry, highlights a few standouts from among the 4,000 pieces of Masonic bling housed in the museum archives.</p><p><strong>1. THREE’S WILD</strong><br />The numerological theme isn’t lost on this three-band gold ring, which belonged to the early-20th-century Masonic writer Frank C. Higgins. Inside the center delta is the number 33, representing the Scottish Rite’s 33rd degree. Inside, the band is inscribed with the Latin phrase <em>Desu Meumque Jus</em>, or “God and My Right.” <em>REF. 303.1</em></p><p><strong>2.

The oval is engraved with the plumb, the square, and the level. <em>REF. 84.23</em></p><p><strong>3. RING FOR A KING<br /></strong>Roy Rogers, the King of the Cowboys, owned this gold band featuring the symbol for the 14th degree of the Scottish Rite: the Hebrew letter <em>yod</em> inside the equilateral triangle. Inside, the ring is engraved with the motto of the 14th degree: <em>Virtus junxit, mors non separabit</em> (“What virtue has united, death will not separate”). One of the most celebrated California Masons ever, Rogers belonged to Hollywood Lodge No. 355. <em>REF. 20 10.2.37</em></p><p><strong>4.
