Fourfold construction - Partially untipped with handrolled ends

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

Imagine a jacket with no interlining, a so called unconstructed jacket. It is light and drape well. This is the feeling you get with a untipped tie and the handrolled and handstitched ends adds an extra dimension of luxury. It takes about 20 minutes to roll and stitch the ends on a Grenadine tie. Our untipped ties are made in a so called fourfold construction (standard is three) which gives the tie a more symmetrical look and feel.

The Grenadine tie

We love Grenadine ties and we know many of our customers share this passion for this light and complex weave. Today there are only two companies in the world producing the Grenadine fabric, both situated in Como in northern Italy. Grenadine fabrics can be woven in either "Fina" (the finer version of the weave) or "Grossa" (the larger weave). The looms used to produce these fabrics are more than one hundred years old and are made of wood. It takes about one hour to weave one meter of Grenadine fabric.

The Grenadine tie has become one of our most popular models. These ties are suitable for all occations - work, weddings but also in less formal outfits (for example with a denim shirt, merino sweater and odd pants)
