◇ mila schön, a luxury brand representing Italy This is a rare vintage tie from the late 1980s to early 90s. At first glance, it appears to be a calm navy-based geometric pattern, but from the tip of the blade to the middle, a detailed jacquard weave boldly and elegantly incorporates a design of parrots. ◇ Design Details Within the stoic navy tones characteristic of mila schön, the design is a sensual one that evokes the energy of Italy at the time, blending tropical birds, botanical elements, and exotic zigzag patterns. Rather than a print, the texture of the bird's feathers and the shadows of the plants are expressed three-dimensionally through a heavy weave that uses a variety of colored silk threads. Ties from that era used silk more lavishly than those of today, and as the photo shows, the volume of the knot and the beauty of the dimples are outstanding. The brand logo "M" is subtly placed within the design, highlighting the fine details. Size: Blade width 9.4cm Condition: Although there is some slight fuzzing, there are no noticeable scratches or stains.
