Fox & Chave Morris Bourne Silk Tie: best price for this luxurious pure silk tie ina print by William Morris, key figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement: high quality silk, beautifully hand finished

William Morris is best known as the 19th century’s most celebrated designer. A key figure in the Arts & Crafts Movement, Morris championed a principle of handmade production that didn’t chime with the Victorian era’s focus on industrial ‘progress’. He produced wallpapers and textiles, carpets, embroideries, tapestries, tiles and book designs, all craft and art-inspired—and these designs make the most elegant and artistic ties—such as this one, Bourne.

A dashing pattern for a silk tie, Bourne makes a contemporary statement yet it was designed in 1905. The repeating, balanced pattern has real symmetry, which is why it has stood the test of time. It’s a classic, with its colours of cream, green and salmon pink, and its theme of wild Nature, this is a tie which works work well in town and country.
