Mughal Elephant Silk Tie

DESIGNER'S NOTES

This Fox & Chave silk tie features a repeat design of Mughal elephants and riders.

The image of the Elephant and rider is derived from the Tashrih al-aqvam, an account of origins and occupations of some of the sects, castes and tribes of India, originally written in 1825. The text is both a survey of both Hindu and Muslim occupational groups and religious mendicants in the Delhi region as well as a summary of the Vedas and Shastras, translated into Persian by Colonel James Skinner (1778–1841).

COLOURS

STYLING

A Fox & Chave silk tie looks best tied in a classic Windsor or half-Windsor knot and worn with a collar style of your choosing. Cutaway or spread collars offer the greatest opportunity to display the detail of your unique silk tie design.
