ABOUT THE TIE

The ground is divided into bold alternating panels of black and red, with framed vignettes set within each panel depicting birds, wheat sheaves, and botanical flowers in gold, blue, slate, and ivory. It is a pattern of considerable ambition, part decorative textile, part natural history illustration, and it reflects the willingness of the early 1980s Italian silk industry to treat a tie as a surface worth serious pictorial attention. The jacquard weave beneath the print gives the cloth a quiet structural richness, the screen-printed colours sitting on a ground that already has texture and depth.

Each tie in The Vintage Collection is handmade in Italy, cut to our current silhouette. The construction and finish are identical to everything else we make. The difference is the cloth.

HOW TO STYLE THIS TIE

This is the tie in the collection that requires the most confidence to wear, and rewards it most visibly. The bold panel structure and the richness of the illustrated vignettes mean it needs space, a plain white or cream shirt and a dark suit, navy or charcoal, are the right partners. It is not a tie for every day, but worn on the right occasion, nothing else in the room will come close.
