Bidspirit auction | Gianni Versace Men's Silk Necktie,

Gianni Versace Men's Silk Necktie, Green Micro-Square Medusa Pattern - This professional designer necktie by Gianni Versace is crafted in Italy from 100% silk. The accessory features a heavyweight, textured weave in a deep forest green color, decorated with a precision-woven white micro-square geometric pattern. Signature yellow silk Medusa head logos are embroidered prominently near the blade and at repeating intervals throughout the design. The reverse features a branded silk tipping with the Gianni Versace name. Approximately 4 inches at the widest point of the blade. A Gianni Versace silk necktie bearing the Medusa motif - the Greek mythological head that Donatella and Gianni chose as the house's emblem - is one of the most culturally loaded luxury accessories imaginable. The Medusa appears here in the micro-square repeat that was a signature of the house's suiting accessories during the peak Versace decade (1988-1997). Authentic Gianni-era Medusa neckties are distinguished from later Versace production by their construction quality and the fidelity of the motif rendering.
