The E.Marinella 5 fold tie is an exceptional tie with a luxurious feel and consistency. From the hand-printing of the silk, to the individual cutting of each piece of fabric, culminating in the folding and closing of the tie, always strictly done by hand. This is a particularly precious tie, because of the incredible amount of silk used: the silk square is folded on itself five, seven or nine times then sewn together, giving the tie a fuller consistency and allowing it to maintain its shape all day long.
