The brand name of our ties made in the Orient is "Pravata".  They are made from the highest quality of silk woven (numbers that begin with "37")and silk printed jacquard (numbers that begin with "27") cloth.  The woven ties are tipped with the same cloth as the tie, self-looped, and stain resistant finished.   The printed ties are self-looped and stain resistant finished.  Both qualities are truly a great value!
