Group Description
Robert was introduced to the silk industry by his grandfather, Basil Brown of menswear accessory brand ‘Holliday and Brown’. Robert started an apprenticeship at the renowned silk printers David Evans, in 1969.
Part of a unique tradition, it all starts with using the finest raw materials. From the regal heavy-set silk twills to finest Scottish cashmere, we even specially commission high ply count silk thread for our jacquard cloth, as we disagree with using the industry standard of using weighted silk.
Our cloth is printed using traditional hand screen printing methods, along with more modern digital inkjet printing technology. This allows us to offer a wide variation of completely British manufactured products. We are one of the only remaining producers offering true Madder silks; a cloth rich in neckwear folk law.
You will only find the high-quality materials in our workshops, as each accessory – from ties, pocket squares, cravats, scarves & bow ties are made with intention to every detail. This unique level of ownership and control over all aspects of manufacturing continues to define our craftsmanship as it has done for generations.
