Those are really beautiful ties. I'm particularly intrigued by the notion of a seven-fold cashmere tie! You wouldn't think that you could fold cashmere that many times without it building up into a humongous handful. Is the cashmere very thin? Does the tie put off much shine, or is it fairly dull the way you might expect wool to be?

It is dull, and the cashmere thin, but it is a handful! I'm really not quite sure why I am selling it. I will probably change my mind in the next couple of hours

ranchsooner, I just sent you a PM about the paisley Borrelli tie. I own 2 Kiton 7-fold cashmere ties from NMLC, including the one you are selling and they are magnificent! They tie a large knot, but not outrageously huge, they have a matte finish as you would expect, and they are _very_ soft. Retail price is $235.

Thanks Alan. I have a serious dearth of paisley ties in my wardrobe and this should coordinate well with all the blues and browns that I _do_ have.
