Beautiful paisley ascot/cravat in a blend of holly red, gold & hunter green would be the perfect gift for the gentleman in your life. This British Made ascot is made of Celanese acetate which was introduced in 1925 as an "artificial silk". The trade name "Celanese" was a combination of the words "cellulose" and "ease". The texture of this fabric is a bit more stiff and structured than silk, thus a fuller "look" can be created with it. The back of the ascot has four pleats.
