Oval Diamond Cut Gold Tone Tie Tac

A small oval face worked with a diamond cut starburst, the lines radiating from a fine four-point centre so the light shifts as you move. The finish is a warm gold tone, polished rather than bright, which keeps it quiet against a plain or patterned tie.

A tie tac pins through the tie itself and holds it to the shirt placket, so it sits flat and stays put through the day. It suits a slimmer tie where a full slide would look heavy, and works as well under a jacket as it does in shirtsleeves.

• Oval face with diamond cut radiating pattern
• Gold tone finish
• Pin fitting for use with a tie

Push the pin through a single layer of the tie, well below the knot, and fasten the back before you straighten the blade.
