OUR NECKWEAR
IS MADE ENTIRELY
by hand in our English
or Amer ican workrooms.
The cutting, sewing and the
finishing are all done by hand.
Each of our ties is cut by an artisan
into 3 pieces – the back, the front, and
the neck – allowing the tie to conform
to the neck. A stitch, called a bar tack, is
also applied by hand, and joins the two
sides on the back. Our ties have a slip-
stitch, whose end, knotted, can be found
loose under the bar tacked area.This stitch
gives resilience to the tie and assures that it
will fall out to return to its original shape
when hung in your closet. All our ties
are lined to produce the proper weight for
the tie, so that they knot perfectly. Our
neckties are cut from the finest materials
– generally pure English or Italian silk,
but occasionally Scottish cashmere,wool or
Irish linen.You can feel the luxuriousness
of the fabric in the hand of the tie,whether
woven or printed.
