Burgundy & Sky Blue Medallion Madder Silk Tie
Handmade in England · Screen-printed in Macclesfield
Regular price £195.00Burgundy madder is about as dependable as a tie gets, and this one has a little more going on than most. Beaded rings of sky blue alternate with small cream tiles, each tile centred on a cross of saffron.
A limited edition, made in a small run for Private Label members and never released more widely.
We hold everything we make, and every conversation with our customers, to the highest standard. Here's what they make of it.
"I can really feel the chalky texture in my finger tips that the Madder silk is famous for… hanging from the neck it feels quite solid and heavy and not flimsy like other ties."

Reassuring in the boardroom. The saffron is for dinner afterwards.
How to Wear
Works with White, pale blue or cream shirts. Navy and charcoal tailoring, navy windowpane in particular.
Patterns An open check or windowpane gives the medallions room. Avoid shirts with a small repeat of the same scale.
Skip Red or pink shirts, which leave the burgundy nowhere to go.
Pairs with the Midnight Windowpane Wool Jacket and the Burnt Orange, Green & Navy Madder Silk Pocket Square.
About This Tie
Madder silk takes its name from the madder root, whose dyes once gave the cloth its colour. What has lasted is the finish: a dry, chalky surface with a soft bloom, and colours that look as though they have already been worn for years. Ours is screen-printed in Macclesfield, where the pH of the River Bollin's water has long suited the dyes.
Each tie is handmade in England with three folds and a self-tipped blade, so it ties a full, well-shaped knot and hangs with real weight. Burgundy is where madder feels most at home, and the sky blue stops it looking inherited.

Care
Dry clean only, and as rarely as you can manage. Madder's chalky finish marks easily with water, so blot a spill straight away rather than rubbing it. Untie it fully after each wearing and roll it loosely rather than hanging it; the creases will be gone by morning.
