Kiton 5-Fold Orange Vintage Silk Geometric Star-Pattern Tie

Discover the Kiton Five-Fold Orange Vintage Silk Geometric Star-Pattern Tie, a piece that carries the particular confidence of Italian neckwear at its mid-century best. The orange ground is warm and saturated, the kind of depth that vintage silk achieves through dyes and weaving techniques that modern production has largely moved away from, the colour sitting in the cloth with a richness that feels genuinely earned. The geometric star pattern runs through it with a structured precision, the repeating motif giving the surface a formality that balances the boldness of the orange and keeps it firmly within the tailoring tradition rather than outside it. The old Kiton logo font, visible on the blade, is the detail that dates this piece precisely and endearingly, a reminder that the house has been making five-fold silk ties to this standard long enough to have changed its typography in the interim.

Vintage Kiton neckwear occupies a specific and respected position among collectors of serious Italian accessories, made during a period when the Naples atelier was establishing the standards it continues to apply today. An orange geometric star in five-fold silk with the original logo is timeless in the way that only genuinely well-made things can be: not because it ignores the passage of time, but because the quality of the silk and the making have proved indifferent to it.

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.
