Royal Masonic Institution for Girls – Steward Jewel, 1966 (46.49 x 35.50 mm, 18.55 g).
Maker: L. Simpson, London
Gilt metal with enamel and ribbon
A refined and well-preserved Royal Masonic Institution for Girls (RMIG) Steward Jewel dated 1966, featuring bright enamelwork, a quality woven ribbon, and decorative heraldic elements.
Suspended from a cream-coloured moiré ribbon—adorned at the centre with a red-and-gold embroidered rosette—the jewel is topped by a light-blue enamel bar inscribed STEWARD.
The lower medallion presents an ornate heraldic design: a silvered shield bearing three black birds on a white field, bordered in red, set beneath a black bird crest and surrounded by scrolling mantling. A red enamel scroll beneath the shield carries the word PROVIDE, while the surrounding pale-blue enamel band reads:
ROYAL MASONIC INSTITUTION FOR GIRLS – 1966
