Two awesome Drake's squares for fall winter. $42 each or $78 for both.

Please see my IG for some ways of wearing the squares. Both in great condition, sparingly used.

1. First in dark brown ground, with mauve griffins and elephants in mauve and orange. The square, especially the mauve, is a bit more subdued than in the pictures, but the combination of brown and purple is an especially effective combo. With a proper puff, the orange provides a subtle accent. I don't wear this square as much as others, and while I love the motif, need to fund new SS tie purchases.

Blue contrasting edges, and, as is true of almost all Drake's squares these days, machined edges. Great shape, sparingly used.






2. Second square with purple ground and brown and rust floral pattern. Easy to use, lovely fall/winter pattern and color. Wool and silk mix, machined edges. Again, the colors a bit more subdued in real life. Sparingly used, in great shape.

Why you should get it: basically, it's a rust-brown square which are perfect fall colors, great with navy, dark brown, green or grey coats. The purple adds a striking accent which, again, goes great with any of those coat colors.

Why I'm letting it go: if you follow my IG, you'll know that I've recently picked up two more rust squares which have made having three overkill. After thinking long and hard, I've favored new over old.
