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 Grenadine Tie

We love grenadine ties and we are obsessed with Shantung ties. To combine these two favourites in one Shantung Grenadine tie makes it the best of both worlds. A light open weave of the Grenadine and the rough texture of the Shantung silk. These ties are great to use in a more casual style, to "dress up" denim and a shirt or perhaps to "dress down" a suit. Use your imagination!

Grenadine

Today there are only two weavers in the world (Como, Italy) that can produce Grenadine fabrics in Garza Grossa (the rougher weave) and Garza Fina (the finer weave). The looms used to create the fabrics are over 100 years old and completely made out of wood. It takes an hour to weave one meter of Grenadine fabric.

The Greandine tie has become one of our most popular models. These ties are great for every moment in life - work, weddings but also in more casual outfits (for example with a denim shirt, merino pullover and trousers).

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.
