Indeed. I tried to take pics of them, but can't get the colours right.

This is reasonably accurate: garza grossa

Ordered 2 ties last night. Will post photos in approx. 2 weeks. Midnight blue linen, lightly lined 3-fold, hand-rolled edgesCamel wool, lightly lined 3-fold, self-tippedBoth 8cm x 59". I also measured the flare of the small tip of my Drake's ties and will be attempting to recreate it in these.

Sorry for the delay. Photos below. I am happy to report that David was able to perfectly recreate the flare of the small blade of my Drake's ties. Sorry for the nature scene but I wanted natural light.

What is the fabric on these two ties, looks kind of interesting.

Achilles,

Yes, we typically keep our full range of grenadines on hand at all times.

Occasionally we run out and we then have the silk rewoven as soon as possible.

A large part of Italy will go on vacation for the month of August so we will have to wait until September.

Thank you for your patience.

Thank you! I assume there will be an update in this thread?

Major haul arrived today. Six new Macclesfield ties. All three fold, untipped, lightly lined. And one Belgian linen pocket square. As always, beautiful. Thanks David.

Awesome, please ID the fabrics.

The 2nd one from the left looks lovely, except most of it is obscured by a giant white swath.

Awesome, please ID the fabrics.

Left to right, Macclesfield # 106, 135, 98, 84, 78, 99. The horrid white swath across the bottom is the Belgian linen square. Sorry for the lousy iphone pic. The package arrived at my office and I ripped it open. Reminded me of those horrible Crazy Eddie, Christmas in July commercials.
