We interline your brown grenadine tie along its full length so that it keeps its shape. As in a jacket made by a tailor, the interlining is wool based. The lining of the wide blade and of the narrow blade finishes the piece cleanly. It is this interlining that lets the dimple, la goutte, the vertical hollow under the knot, form and hold.
Our silk grenadine is woven on slow looms from the late nineteenth century; only a few of them are still running today. It is a rare fabric, with the open, airy grain that made grenadine the connoisseur's tie.
