Floral Pattern Madder Silk Tie - Avio Blue

The Depth of Madder Silk

Madder silk is appreciated for its distinctive character, with a more restrained lustre than conventional silk and a soft hand that gives printed colours remarkable depth.

On this fabric, the avio blue ground appears rich without becoming overly bright, while the rust, beige and light blue elements retain a warm, subtly softened quality. This relationship between colour and texture gives the tie its distinctive appearance.

A Classic Construction

The three-fold construction defines the structure of the tie, while the internal lining supports the fabric and contributes to a stable, well-proportioned knot. The self-tipped finish uses the same madder silk to complete the reverse of the ends.

Each tie is handmade in Italy, with careful attention to proportion, construction and finishing.

A Sophisticated Palette Built Around Avio Blue

Avio blue provides the foundation for a composition that is rich in colour yet carefully balanced. Small floral and geometric motifs alternate across the surface: rust outlines define the main elements, while beige and light blue introduce lighter, more delicate accents.

The Distinctive Character of Madder Silk

The pattern takes on a particular character through the qualities of madder silk. Its restrained lustre gives the colours greater depth and a subtly muted appearance, distinguishing the fabric from brighter printed silks.

The result is a tie suited to both professional tailoring and more considered combinations. Avio blue pairs naturally with navy, grey and brown suits, while the rust and beige accents complement camel, tobacco and other earthy shades particularly well.

Three-Fold Construction and Self-Tipped Finish

The 3-fold construction and internal lining give the tie sufficient body to form a defined knot while maintaining a balanced drape.

The ends are self-tipped using the same madder silk as the body of the tie. This traditional detail creates continuity between the exterior fabric and the finishing on the reverse of the blades.

Preserving Madder Silk Over Time

After each wear, completely undo the knot with gentle movements and allow the tie to rest before wearing it again. Avoid pulling the fabric directly through the knot to help preserve both its structure and distinctive surface.

Storage and Cleaning

Store the tie flat or loosely rolled, away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture. Avoid contact with water, perfume and oily substances, which may affect the distinctive finish of madder silk.

Do not wash or apply direct heat to the tie. Should staining occur, entrust it to a professional experienced in caring for fine silk neckwear.
