Fourfold construction - partially unconstructed with handrolled hems

"A classic and time consuming construction that gives the Grenadine tie its perfect drape, knot and feel."

Think of an unconstructed jacket with soft shoulders. It is light and has an amazing drape. That exact feeling is what a partially unconstructed tie (so called untipped tie) gives you and with the handrolled and handsewn hems it gets that extra dimension of flare and luxury. A elegant and clean look. It takes about 20 minutes to roll and sew the hems on a Grenadine tie. Our ties are produced in a fourfold construction which gives the tie a more symetric shape.

Shantung

Shantung silk, aslo known as raw silk, is a textured silk which historically comes from the province of Shandong in China. These fabrics carries irregularities and knobs due to the shorter yarns that are wound together.
