Neckwear can be playful and still look stylish, as shown by the handcrafted line by Gentleman Arthur. This label produces some of the most cool patterns and prints found on ties. Inspiration from art influences like art-deco and geodesic makes these pieces a must-have for art fans. Also, the woodblock printing process adds an aesthetically quality difficult to find elsewhere.
These rustic-looking pieces sport a raw, but chic style. Colorful and sometime eccentric, these manly accessories are adventurous because of the materials used -- wood, cotton and felt -- and the unique designs. Also, each tie has the imperfections of the hand-sewn seams, making each product one-of-a-kind.
Samuel Wagner, the co-founder of Gentleman Arthur, declares, "I wanted to create a project that had the mental complexity of artwork while sharing the accessibility of popular culture."
