Description
Pair of Gold Painted Secret Society Boxes, Masonic Pigpen Cipher. These wooden chests are gilded on the outside with black symbols from the pigpen cipher alphabet (also called the masonic, Freemason's, or Rosicrucian cipher), one box with a triad featuring Hebrew, and were used in ceremony for fraternal organizations. We believe these are specifically Masonic as they came from a Masonic Lodge.
