Dawn o’ Day Lodge No. 6317 – Founder’s Jewel, c. 1920s–1930s (44.33 x 39.14 mm, 22.91g). Maker: (Hallmarked silver, British manufacture) A finely executed and visually striking Founder’s Jewel for Dawn o’ Day Lodge No. 6317, crafted in silver with gilt highlights and rich blue enamel, suspended from its original black-and-gold striped ribbon. The jewel is surmounted by an ornate gilt scroll bar bearing the title FOUNDER in deep blue enamel. Below hangs a Maltese cross-style jewel with radiating arms, centred by a crowned lion’s head within a blue enamel circlet inscribed Mortalium Omnibus Horis Sapit. The contrasting gilt and silver elements are crisply defined, with excellent symbolic balance and strong visual depth. The reverse is engraved: “Presented to Bro. E. Day C.P. by Dawn o’ Day Lodge No. 6317”, and retains its original suspension, fittings, and silver hallmarks, confirming period manufacture. Condition: Very Fine. Enamel well preserved with good colour; metalwork sharp; ribbon original with expected age wear and minor fraying; overall an attractive and honest example with pleasing patina.
