White & Red Moire with Gold Fringe Apron - Master Mason Scottish Rite (AASR - Craft Freemasonry)

This White and Red Moiré Apron with Gold Fringe is the official regalia of a Master Mason in Craft Freemasonry under the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite (AASR) tradition. Richly symbolic and visually distinguished, it marks the culmination of the symbolic lodge degrees (Entered Apprentice, Fellowcraft, and Master Mason) and reflects the deep moral and spiritual lessons of the 3rd Degree—death, rebirth, and immortality.

Often used in European and Latin American AASR Craft lodges, this apron emphasizes the solemn dignity and honor conferred upon a Master Mason, combining elements of both operatic symbolism and philosophical depth.
