@Xenon: That is a LOT of ties (and a lot of purp/blue)!

@Mack: I wish I could get paid to put stripes of color together like many of those.

Guess who has a new favourite thread?

EDIT #2: JRD. Your collection makes me want to be a better man.

Thanks bro. Very nice compliment.

Seems you have an affinity for satin geometric ties?

I really like the storage method

My set-up. Rack actually folds-upwards.

GREAT collection, G.

Deets on the makers?

Also, where'd you buy the rack?

Spoiler

The sad part is there isn't a tie I can see in this photo that I would consider wearing...

Wow, very nice collections

Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks.

Still an impressive collection in its own right, though.

It's a homemade unit mounted on hinges for easy access to both sides and can rest against a wall. The woods are purpleheart and maple mounted on bronze hinges.

Actually my favourite ties are bold paisleys followed by bold geometrics, but I have far more paisleys in general. Some of these are works of art. The earlier Penroses and Duchamps are absolutely stunning IMHO. I have a couple Brioni paisleys with a deep black background and either deep purple or silver paisley and generously highlighted in 24K satin gold. Believe it or not these are quite tasteful.

this is rack #1 for blacks, blues, purples, lilacs, fuschias, golds, & yellows. Rack # 2 is identical but for browns, greens, reds, oranges. I have a third cheap rack where my soporific (rarely worn/unloved) ties get relegated to such as stripes/reps, solids etc.
