Royal Order of Antediluvian Buffaloes Necklace

This fantastic vintage medal necklace is made with an artifact from the Royal Order of Antediluvian Buffaloes, one of the largest fraternal societies in the United Kingdom. Started in 1822 in London by a group of artists and comedians. FOunded in a spirit of humor, use of "royal" when it lacked royal patronage, and "antediluvian" when its foundations are of historical record, are added to mock the solemnity of fraternal orders.

Measurements & Materials:
* The medal measures 1 1/4" wide
* solid bronze chain measures 18"
