It is a Masonic ring, the eagle motif (the Eagle of Lagash) was apparently introduced as a symbol in 1758 at the Council of Emperors of the East and West in Paris. This symbol had been previously used to represent the two bodies if the Roman Catholic Church, east and west. It has been extensively used to represent a "joined" rule or monarchy throughout European history.

Scottish Rite (Masons) use this symbol frequently. They have a very informative history (with pictures) at:
