tie tack purpose?

Tie Bar / tack alternative

An alternative way to keep your tie in place w/o bars/tacks:

You can make one of these easily using the clear plastic that stiffens the collar of dress shirt when it's packaged for sale in the store.

It does require that your tie have a keeper-loop to pass it through, something I gather is not always present on a vintage tie.

Yes, but was it hinged? I can't find any that don't have a hinge with teeth.

The Bay is your friend.

That's where I got my vintage tie jewelry.

Couldn't find what I was looking for.[huh]

For that matter... what is the function of the tie?

Depending on the inclination of one's date, a tie tends to chafe the wrists much less than a leather belt ...
