In the United States, Masonic sashes (often referred to as Baldricks) are primarily worn within the York Rite, specifically the Knights Templar and Scottish Rite.

Exquisite Masonic Regalia: Premium Shoulder Sash (USA Commandery Style)

Elevate your fraternal attire with this masterfully crafted Masonic Shoulder Sash, designed specifically for the discerning Sir Knight. Often referred to as a Baldrick, this piece is a central component of the Knights Templar (York Rite) uniform in the United States, representing a commitment to the values of chivalry and tradition.

Superior Craftsmanship & Materials

Each sash is constructed from heavy-duty moiré silk ribbon, known for its distinctive “watered” appearance that catches the light with professional elegance. The interior is reinforced with a high-quality stiffening interlining, ensuring the sash maintains a crisp, flat profile across the chest throughout long ceremonies and parades.

Key Specifications

  • Dimensions: Approximately 4 inches (100mm) wide, tailored to a standard length that sits comfortably from the shoulder to the hip.

  • Color Palette: Available in  Classic Commandery Black (Standard) or Pristine White (Past Commander/Grand Rank), providing a striking contrast against the uniform.

  • Bullion Embroidery: Features a prominent Red Passion Cross centered on the chest. The embroidery is executed using genuine gold or silver bullion wire, creating a 3D texture and brilliant luster that synthetic threads cannot replicate.

  • The Fringe: The sash is elegantly finished with 2-inch hand-twisted bullion wire fringe, adding weight and a traditional “swing” to the garment.

Functional Design for the Modern Knight

  • Protective Lining: The underside is finished with a smooth satin backing to prevent snagging on your coat or shirt.
