A fine and ornate Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes (RAOB) Grand Council Primo Jewel, awarded to a distinguished member of Hexalpha Lodge No. 1718. This piece is crafted in sterling silver and richly finished with polychrome enamel, characteristic of high-grade RAOB insignia.

The pendant medallion is particularly attractive, featuring a radiant multi-pointed star in alternating white and red enamel, centred by a bold blue enamel field bearing PRIMO. Surrounding this is a silver wreath entwined with pale-blue scrolls inscribed with the RAOB motto:
OMNIBUS · MORIS · APTI · NEC · TEMERE
The reverse displays the original presentation plaque, along with maker’s marks and London silver stamping confirming authenticity.
