Sheaf of Corn Freemasonry Symbols Charm

In King Solomon's day, the Masonic Sheaf of Corn signified a portion of the money gained and reaped from the Master Masons' labors. In Freemasonry, the Sheaf of Corn represents the advantages of our labor and the rewards garnered by those who came before us, as well as the value of participating in philanthropic acts. Masons are reminded of their previous brothers' hard work by the insignia. After a good harvest, the field leftovers were given to widows and orphans. Masons, like maize leftovers left for the poor, must take part in humanitarian actions that aid our society's needy.
