BRAXMAR WAS A MASTER JEWELER WHO CRAFTED SWORDS FOR ONLY A RELATIVE BRIEF PERIOD. A SOMEWHAT ECCENTRIC INDIVIDUAL, BRAXMAR KEPT THE \"X\" SILENT WHEN PRONOUNCING HIS NAME. FOR A SHORT TIME HE STYLIZED THE SPELLING TO READ AS \"BRAEMAR\". THIS BIZARRE ECCENTRICITY CAUSED SUBSEQUENT HISTORIANS TO MAKE INCORRECT ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT THE FIRM, WHICH IN REALITY WAS ALWAYS CORRECTLY NAMED \"BRAXMAR\". CHARLES G. BRAXMAR DIED IN 1914 AS A RESULT OF AN EXPLOSION IN HIS HARLEM RESIDENCE. HE SMELLED A GAS LEAK AND LIT A MATCH AND THAT WAS THAT! THE COMPANY CONTINUED TO EXIST FOR MANY YEARS THEREAFTER.

Here we have a truly excellent and eye-catching historic antique 1907 Knights Templar Jewel from the Trinity Commandery of Plainfield, New Jersey. It hails from their participation in the Triennial Conclave held in Saratoga, New York. A striking piece featuring a very dynamic design. At the center, within a mystical circular halo, is the Skull and Crossed Bones. Everything is very Medieval looking and metaphysical. The piece appears to be silvered brass. We do not know the ecact components. The Jewel is in very good vintage condition with only some normal expected minor surface wear. No serious problems. It is over 100 years old. The jewel measures approximately 3 inches in total length. The maker here is the illustrious New York City based \"Charles G. Braxmar\" (1850-1914), one of the really great historical American Masonic Jewelers and Sword makers. He only made swords, belts and specific regalia for a limited period in time before resuming to specialize in jewelry, badges and other related items. Braxmar had an odd way of pronouncing his name. He kept the \"X\" silent. Because of this peculiarity, during one period, he decided to stylize the spelling of his name to appear as \"Braemar\". Due to this eccentricity, quite a few historic books mistakenly list a company called \"C. G. Braemar\", when in fact there never was such a company. It always was \"C. G. BRAXMAR\"! Braxmar swords equaled and sometimes even surpassed the works of “The Ames Sword Company”, “M. C. Lilley & Co”, “The Pettibone Bros” and “William Horstmann of Philadelphia”. A classical memento of historic American Freemasonry.
