FAQs
Can I machine wash this tie?
No. Machine washing will destroy the delicate silk fibers and the internal structure of the tie. Always dry clean.
Does the 8cm blade width fit all shirt collars?
Yes, it is a standard width designed to balance well with most collar spreads, particularly spread or semi-spread collars.
Is the paisley pattern too bold for a business setting?
Not at all. The multi-tonal nature of the blue palette provides a subtle, professional elegance rather than an overwhelming appearance.
What is the best way to store this tie?
Rolling the tie from the thin end to the wide end is the best method to maintain its shape and prevent sharp creases.
Can I iron this tie?
Avoid ironing. If absolutely necessary, place a clean cotton cloth between the iron and the silk, use the lowest heat setting, and avoid steam.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles in the silk
Hang the tie in a steamy bathroom for 10-15 minutes or use a professional garment steamer from a distance.
Knot feels too thin or small
Switch to a full Windsor knot to utilize the 8cm blade width for a more substantial appearance.
Spot or stain on the fabric
Do not attempt to scrub. Take the tie to a professional dry cleaner immediately to prevent the stain from setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This tie is best suited for suits with moderate to wide lapels. It coordinates well with solid-colored jackets in charcoal, navy, or mid-grey.
Care Instructions:
- Storage: Always untie the knot immediately after use. Hang the tie on a rack or roll it loosely to prevent permanent creases.
- Cleaning: Do not wash in a machine or soak in water. Use professional dry cleaning services specifically experienced with fine silk accessories.
- Wrinkle Removal: If the tie becomes wrinkled, use a garment steamer held at least six inches away. Do not press with a hot iron directly on the silk fabric as it may burn or crush the weave.
