I now have 2 masonic hats, this one is superior in quality to the previous one
This was a gift from someone who was part of the Freemasons or just Masons
The red one previously posted about sported a Knights Templar cross, but this new one has a Maltese cross so could be for a different order.
Masonic hats when you search online seem to come in many different shapes although like this one they are predominantly pillbox shaped hats.
It's the badge rather than the hat that matters since that is an item that ties it to the lodge and his rank.
I say his since in my 30 seconds of research I don't believe they allow women to join, although it does say there are 2 females only lodges in the UK.
