I'm not sure of the mill. The jacket is from Samuelsohn but there's no fabric label inside. The tag just says it was woven in Italy.

@gshen Could you post a photo of the VBC hopsack 331 next to the light blue linen silk? Trying to find a light (but not too light) blue tie that i can wear in the summer and stretch into the rest of the year, possibly. thanks

Sure thing. FWIW, I think the light blue hopsack would work better for year-round use. Here's the comparison shot:

@gshen wonderful service, thank you. They both look great. back with an order shortly...

one of the things i realized is that i may want ot wear this with my navy hopsack Sc in the summer, so that would argue for the linen/silk to avoid hopsack on hopsack

@gshen - I should have asked these questions all at once, sorry...

is this 311, if not, what color # is it?

https://shop.vandafineclothing.com/collections/neckties/products/light-blue-hopsack - its great hte way you do pics with a white shirt and navy sport coat - very helpful.

Also, could you add 379 into the picture you posted above with 331 and the light blue linen silk? I am thinking 331 hopsack may be too saturated for what i am after and so trying to find something a little darker/less saturated. thank you in advance!

Nope, Light Blue Hopsack is col. 357 which isn't listed under the MTO section. 311 is a shade lighter, 331 is a shade brighter, and 379 is almost an electric blue.

On the left is the light blue silk linen, and on the right from top to bottom: 311, 331, light blue hopsack (357), 379:

One more with the 3 closest shades, 311 on the top right again:
