This tie was my fathers, 100% silk, made in Italy from between 1975 - 1977 (he can't remember exactly). It was never worn, is in excellent/mint condition, and has been in storage for 30 odd years. It is gemstone saphire blue with red circles woven and has the emblematic two interwoven red "G"'s on the front bottom left hand side (please see photo). Gucci with the shield is also embossed in the black backing material of the tie. The single line looped stitching is perfect along the back and the tie is flattened beautifully. There is a slight bit of roughness to the silk (please see photo) on the backside of the tie, to the left of the label - this doesn't affect the tie in any way and it appears to be part of the fabric makeup.
Measurements:
length: 56"
width at bottom (widest part): 3.5"
width at top (skinny end): 1.75"
Postage is not marked up and is quoted directly from the Canada Post website. I have, however, added in a $1.50 P&H fee for the padded envelope so this gets to you safely. To ship to most places in the States, it would cost $6.70 regular post, 9-11 business days without tracking.
This is my personal collection (well, ok, my Fathers), I am not a dealer, but am moving abroad
so sadly I have to get rid of everything. Please ask any questions you
have about the merchandise, shipping or for further images PRIOR TO
BIDDING as there are no refunds and I've already had a few lots go frey
bentos on me cause people never asked for shipping quotes prior to
winning.
BTW,
please please read my feedback so you understand why the percentage is
so low. I'm not a big seller so one negative hurts a lot.
Thanks again and do check out my other items as I have a LOT more ties to come!
