Born in the 19th century and long considered a tie knot among so many others, this accessory was originally worn to the opera and obviously owes its name to its shape.
Silk
The empress of noble fabrics, whose trade secret was jealously guarded by the Chinese for over 2500 years, silk is the only natural textile fibre whose thread is continuous. It is taken from the cocoon of the Bombyx Mori caterpillar, also called the silkworm, and its appearance varies according to the way it is woven or worked.
