Barberini - Silk Ascot Cravat Tie - Blue and Navy

"This is the fourth ascot I have purchased from Elizabetta and the quality is outstanding" -Charles H.

$125.00

Embrace a piece of Roman heritage with our Barberini Ascot, featuring a classic medallion print on dark navy blue silk.

Growing up in Rome, my best friend and I embarked on an ambitious adventure. Our goal? To visit every fountain in the city. Countless afternoons were spent darting through ancient streets, discovering famous fountains and hidden gems.
Yet, even after two school years, there was always more to see.

One of our favorites was the Fontana del Tritone in Piazza Barberini, a masterpiece by Bernini. The Barberini family, an esteemed Roman aristocracy, had their palace nearby, adding to the allure of the piazza.

Wearing this ascot is a reminder of the endless beauty and rich heritage of Rome, perfect for any occasion where you want to feel a touch of Roman aristocracy.

Details

The classic ascot size: 6" (15cm) wide, 2 1/4" (6cm) mid-point collar width, 53.5" (136cm) long. A comfortably large length and width that fits most men.

100% silk twill: A soft, silky fabric traditionally used in men's tailoring for its look and its drape. Characterized by a diagonal weave which makes it very durable.

Limited edition: We make these in small quantities, so you know your ascot is truly one-of-a-kind.

Pure luxury, naturally dyed: We use non-toxic vegetable dyes that preserve the silk's softness, free from harmful chemicals that can irritate your skin (and is better for the planet!)

Affordable luxury: We bring these directly from the people who make them to you. There are no massive markups and middlemen, which keeps our prices remarkably reasonable.

100% Handmade in Italy: Printed, cut and sewn along the shores of Lake Como.
