The bias cut
01The silk is cut by hand at 45° to the grain, on the paper pattern. That is what makes the tie hang straight and spring back into shape after every knot.
Ties
Midnight Rings Tie
Tailored tie in heavy 28 mm silk twill: the fuller silk gives a superb drape and a full knot, while the diagonal twill weave catches the light with a subtle sheen. White rings and pearl-grey dots set on the diagonal on midnight blue silk: a classic boardroom pattern, regular and clean.

Description
How we pair it: white twill with a cutaway collar and cufflink cuffs, navy suit.
How to tie it
The simple knot (four-in-hand) works best: it stays slim and slightly asymmetric, and lets the weave show. The tip should reach your belt.
Care and storage
At the end of the day, undo the knot and roll it up or hang it: the creases will drop out on their own. No washing machine: for stains, have it dry-cleaned.

The workshop
How a tie is made
Our ties are made by a small Roman workshop of master craftsmen who make only ties. One person follows each piece from cutting to pressing.
The interlining and the fold
02A wool interlining goes inside the silk to give the knot body. The edges are folded by hand, without presses, so the tie stays soft.
The slip stitch
03The back is closed by hand with a single thread left loose: the tie can stretch with the knot without pulling. A bar tack holds the two ends.
Tip and pressing
04The tip is finished with the silk lining, the label is sewn on and the tie is steamed through a cloth, without flattening the rolled edges.
The hands
Only tiesA young workshop that makes no shirts or suits: only ties, with the gestures of the Roman tailoring tradition.
The time
One tie at a timeNo assembly line: each tie passes through a single pair of hands from cutting to finishing.
The silk
Italian silksPattern-woven jacquards and printed twills, chosen for hand, weight and how well they hold a knot.
