This design variation is associated with certain overseas lodges and provincial jurisdictions within the Order. The top bar is gilt and enamelled in deep blue with the inscription: PRIMO It is flanked by a pair of stylised banners and surmounted by a classical laurel wreath motif. The jewel is suspended from an eye-catching ribbon in the colours green, orange, and black, folded in the typical RAOB rosette style at the top of the pendant. The medallion is circular, with a white enamel border framing a dark enamel field upon which is mounted a beautifully modelled gilt moose head with full antlers. A small roundel at the base contains a further gilt device, possibly lodge- or rank-related, completing the composition. Reverse The reverse is plain gilt metal, typical of uninscribed RAOB officer or rank jewels. No maker or presentation engraving appears, though the construction and style align with mid-century regalia workshops active in the UK and Commonwealth. Condition: Fine. Ribbon with bright colours and only light handling wear; enamel intact with good gloss; gilt surfaces moderately toned from age; reverse clean; suspension fittings original and fully functional. A bold and uncommon RAOB Primo Jewel, notable for its moose-head device and vibrant ribbon. An appealing addition to collections of Buffaloes regalia, especially those focused on design variations and non-standard insignia.
