A gorgeous black silk tie with white crests and blue ribbon.

Would be nice to wear at a wedding.

Probably made by an unknown brand for Hengerer’s in Buffalo. They closed over 20 years ago.

Fifties.

Narrow: 5,8 cm.

Shiny and with a really nice, geometric design. Almost op-art.

That futuristic circle makes me guess it’s from the fifties.

I really like this. But the shiny gold/blue fabric is impossible to capture in a photo.

6 cm wide.

Classy. And that golden triangle beneath the crown is really nice too. Is it the emblem of some secret brotherhood?

Shop Label: Joseph’s San Antonio by Damon.

Says All Silk Warp. But another label beneath says: 65% rayon, 35% silk....

Almost skinny: 5,3 cm wide.

Love the texture on this! Is it supposed to be wood? Beautiful.

In addition, it has an interesting motif.

And Wembley always tells you which color suit to wear it with. Cool!

(Though, personally, I wouldn’t mind wearing this with a blue suit.)

5,7 cm wide.

Ever since the eighties I’ve loved paisley patterns. This is one of the most discreet and classy ones I’ve seen. Beautiful.

Still, classy and beautiful ties like this don’t get that much use. I seldom move in circles where I need to show this kind of muted elegance.

Unfortunately.

Reasonably narrow: 6,3 cm.

A well designed tie. But a bit too formal and conservative for my taste. Nice condition.

Skinny: 5 cm wide.

A rather cool tie, with its wavy California surf pattern. Unfortunately, not in mint condition.

5,5 cm wide.

A really nice tie from Majestic, which don’t get that much use. I guess it’s personality is a bit dull.
Nice and really well designed, and a bit dull.

It’s also a bit on the wide side: 6,5 cm.

A nice silk tie from Berkley. From the Fifties, I guess.
I love ties with shop labels. It gives the tie its history and origin.

5,5 cm wide. (Almost skinny - my definition of skinny tie: 5 cm (2 inches) or less.)
