Madder Ties

“Classic can be distinctive…”

For a tie rich in colour with distinct hues, madder ties are ideal. These ties are woven with a
36-ounce silk to give a luxuriously weighted tie. The suppleness of the silk is intensely

tactile.

Featuring two of our stylised designs, Huntsman’s design director drew inspiration for our
limited-edition tie range from our jewel-green jacquard wallpapered fitting suite; the setting

for the fictional tailoring house from the film ‘Kingsman’.

Huntsman are delighted to collaborate with the only surviving mill in Manchester that
continues to dye silks using traditional ancient Madder techniques. During the process of
creation, silk reduces in weight; Robert Keyte who founded the mills accepts the loss, unlike
other silk houses, which add minerals salts. The result is a tie that yields a higher quality of

silk.
