Masonic breastplates are an essential part of Masonic regalia, often worn by officers and members during lodge ceremonies and special occasions. These ornate breastplates are designed with intricate Masonic symbols, including the Square and Compasses, the Twelve Tribes of Israel, and the High Priest’s Breastplate, symbolizing wisdom, leadership, and divine guidance.
