A tie that skipped the silk factory entirely. A black ground carrying blue and turquoise geometry drawn from Ukrainian ornament — formalwear that arrives with a folk memory sewn in.

Beaded by hand in Ukraine, thousands of tiny beads standing in for thread and weave, so it catches light the way no fabric can.

One of one. Arrives gift-ready.

The tale of this motif

Folk motifs carry meanings older than writing — poppies guard the home, wheat calls the harvest, birds watch over travellers.

Beads for the night side

Black glass has a long memory: Victorian mourning jewellery was strung from it, and a black-ground gerdan makes every red burn brighter. Our skulls, bats and serpents are beaded exactly like the poppies — the same seed beads, the same hands in Ukraine — only the motifs have changed.
