Design & Inspiration:

‘Muscle Car’ is a unique and high-quality full-size silk pocket square, Made in England. It has been created in collaboration with Australian artist Toby Wilkinson. His work covers a wide range of subjects but love of automotive shines through.

Toby's original artwork was completed digitally and inspired by the original American muscle car of the 1960s. He used layering as well as masking of colour and texture to achieve the desired painterly result with his iconic subject.

Quality:

In Macclesfield, the traditional home of English silk printing, the artwork is reproduced with great care. This enables an excellent balance of design colour & clarity between the printed and reverse sides of the fine 16oz Mulberry silk twill, ensuring the pocket square looks perfect whichever fold is used. The image is framed by the pocket square’s grey border and the skilfully hand-rolled & hand-sewn 'shoestring' hem in dark turquoise. The overall quality of this pocket square from the UK's leading maker is what you would normally expect to find only on London's Savile Row or Jermyn Street.

Material Composition & Care

High-quality 100% Mulberry silk woven into 16oz silk twill gives the characteristic sheen and cool touch as well as ensuring the pocket square sits nicely in the top pocket.

Silk should always be dry cleaned. Avoid pressing the hand-finished hem to preserve its distinctive 'shoestring' shape.
