Kiton 5-Fold Navy & Azure Blue Silk Floral-Medaillon Tie

Discover the Kiton Five-Fold Navy and Azure Blue Silk Floral Medallion Tie, a tie that finds the most elegant possible way to work within a single colour family. Navy and azure blue is a tonal combination rather than a contrast, the two shades of blue working together with a depth and coherence that a more varied palette would trade for impact. The floral medallion pattern distributes itself across the navy ground with a formal, almost classical quality, the repeating motif giving the surface a structured richness that the closely related colours then soften into something wearable across a wide range of occasions. Up close the azure blue of the medallion reveals a detail and precision in the weave that the tonal approach rewards rather than obscures, the pattern emerging with more complexity than the restrained palette initially suggests. In pure silk the navy and azure carry a natural luminosity that shifts as the tie moves, the two blues behaving differently in different light conditions throughout the day. Five folds without interlining, made entirely by hand in Naples.

A navy and azure floral medallion from Kiton is the tie for the man who understands that working within a single colour family is often more sophisticated than reaching for contrast, the subtlety of the combination doing quiet but persistent work against whatever suit it is worn with. Characteristically Kiton in its restraint and entirely uncompromising in its making.

Kiton was founded by Ciro Paone in 1968 in Arzano, near Naples. Ciro Paone was born in Naples in 1933; he came from a family of fabric dealers who had been operative for five generations – which have now become seven generations. For more than 3 decades, Ciro’s passion gave rise to the Kiton project. With the founding of Kiton, Ciro turned his greatest passion into a vocation, elevating tailoring from a modest artisan craft to an artistic expression: the love for beauty, the love for beautiful garments. His entire existence focuses on two fundamentals: passion and quality.

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.
