Viola Milano CHAIN PATTERN 6-FOLD SELFTIPPED SILK TIE – NAVY MIX

Self-Tipped

The tip is simply the fabric that is used to finish the backside of a tie. Even though this part of your tie is not usually visible, we use the same fabric for the tip as we do for the shell of the tie. This beautiful method is called self-tipping and, while more expensive to produce, creates a more beautiful tie that stands up to closer scrutiny without leaving you disappointed.

6-Fold

A Viola Milano six fold tie is a true testament to the skill possessed by the craftsmen in our laboratorio. In addition to requiring substantially more of our exclusive fabrics to make, the ancient six fold construction requires time, patience and knowledge to fully master. The process results in a slightly asymmetrical knot that gives off a feeling of ’sprezzatura’ and subtle elegance that we at Viola Milano love.
