Prime indeed!

A nice hand-painted tie I got a while back.

Nice one!

Very nice ties, everyone! For Christmas, I have ordered the ties that I've shown pictures of, pretty recently, and on Christmas, I also received a very nice tie hanger for my closet, that could hold up to about sixty ties. Most of my new ties are narrow (Some of them are very narrow, down to 1 1/2"!), with a couple of identical 4" wide black wool ties. Black wool ties are some of my favorites. Perhaps you may have an idea about these being mainly for more dressed up events, like weddings or funerals, but I wear black ones pretty often. When I put one of these new ties on, I'll try to show a picture of it.

I am a great fan of the Serie "Hell on Wheels".
Can you help me, is this a tie what is Colm Meany wearing? Or is it a scarf?
And why can i find a instruction to bind it.
Here a picture:

That is just a “ribbon” tie tied the same way you do your shoes.

Bold or Boring, I appreciate the input from all of you.
Happy New Year to you guys and I hope we all find plenty of the ones we like in 2015.

That knot-planned tie makes me want to tie it and see how it looks. That is a very unusual knot pattern. :clap:

Cheers!

Awesome! Even better when you can see knot-planned ties "in the field."
Now do it with a windsor knot. Just kidding---although I manage to do a few of mine that way.

Gentleman's Emporium has a similar untied string tie, but only a black one. While you are there, you could check out their other neckties, cravats, or scarfs.

That is a great website for that era of clothing. :clap:

It is! I haven't bought anything from there, but apart from the fact that there are polyester blended garments, the clothes seem authentic enough to me. There are some interesting pants and coats, as well as all of those ties and scarves. I wonder if Hollywood ever uses their clothes for period productions?

My friend bought a frock coat from them a while back. It looks good enough to me.

 

[Fastuni]

Can't wait for this one to arrive.

Can anyone help with the approximate date of this tie? The fabric and cut looks 30-40's, but it might be early 50's already.
Also what were the usual countries of origin for "imported fabrics"?

 

[The Good]

Oh, very nice! What is the width?

 

[dh66]

That is a wild one Fastuni. Cool pattern.
