Hermès x ING Private-Banking Ice Blue Silk Animal-Pattern Tie

Discover the Hermès x ING Private Banking tie in a crisp ice blue silk, enlivened by a whimsical animal motif rendered in the maison’s signature illustrative style. Commissioned as a limited corporate gift for ING’s private banking clients in the early 2000s, this tie blends light-hearted charm with understated elegance. The pale blue hue offers a refreshing contrast to classic suiting, while the playful pattern, likely featuring foxes, horses, or other Hermès-favoured creatures—adds a quiet dash of personality without straying into novelty.

Printed in Hermès’ Lyon workshops using meticulous silk screen techniques, the tie is almost certainly a 3-fold construction with a softly structured lining, allowing it to knot neatly and sit fluidly at the collar. Though never sold in stores, it upholds all the hallmarks of Hermès craftsmanship: precise alignment, vibrant yet nuanced colour, and a finish that speaks to quiet excellence. A true relic of analog-era client loyalty, it’s more than a tie, it’s a story in silk.

Please review measurements and quality control comments carefully before ordering. As a small independent boutique we encourage thoughtful purchasing. For any questions, feel free to contact us before placing your order.

To maintain the beauty of this sartorial item, we recommend professional laundering and careful pressing. Even though ironing can effectively and easily remove wrinkles from your tie, the heat has the potential to scorch and damage the material, and it can leave your tie looking lifeless and flat. Steaming is usually the better option because it's much gentler on the fabric and can tackle the most stubborn wrinkles.

General Note: While we inspect each item to ensure its quality, please note that minor imperfections may be present due to the preloved nature of the garments. We strive to represent every item accurately, but subtle signs of wear may sometimes go unnoticed. We appreciate your understanding and commitment to sustainable luxury.
