Banners, Standards & Flags
Major emblems of a Lodge, symbols of its identity and sacred markers at the Orient of the Temple, the Masonic banner, standard and Lodge flag embody the history, name and values of the Respectable Lodge. Displayed during Lightings of the Fires, Consecration ceremonies, anniversaries or the reception of dignitaries, these textile decorations demand nobility of drape, exceptional finishes and a flawless bearing. At Décors & Symboles, our Masonic banners, standards and flags come from old-style artisanal craftsmanship, embroidered in gold thread and silk thread, guaranteeing textile artwork of remarkable quality and prestige.
Old-Style Art Embroidery: Gold Thread, Silk Thread and Noble Velvet
To offer your Lodge an insignia of unmatched majesty, durable and in keeping with the highest ritual traditions, our pieces are executed using traditional artistic craftsmanship:
- Artisanal Embroidery in Gold and Silk Thread: Worked by hand with the tambour hook according to traditional techniques, the embroidery reveals striking relief, incomparable brilliance and exceptional fineness of detail.
- Heavy Velvet & Ceremonial Moiré Satins: A selection of top-quality art velvets, pure silks or lined moiré satins, offering a heavy, majestic drape without any unsightly creasing.
- Passementerie and Fine Metalwork Finishes: Lodge motifs, ritual symbols (Square, Compass, Blazing Delta, Coats of Arms) and lettering enhanced with gold or silver braids and rich bullion fringes.
- Reinforced Loops and Sleeves: Construction designed to properly receive the crossbar, the pole and the ceremonial tasselled cords without distorting the fabric.
Would you like to design the original banner for your new Lodge, reproduce a historical standard identically or adapt the dimensions to your Temple? Our service provides made-to-measure creation, design mock-ups and personalised production to order of all your textile symbols.
