Product Insights
This Paul Smith tie clip showcases the Artist Stripe, a 1980s reinvention of a regimental tie, rendered in alternating gold-tone metal and genuine mother-of-pearl inlays that serve as a subtle brand identifier with 40 years of heritage. Its spring-loaded clamp secures ties reliably, though the delicate mother-of-pearl inlay requires careful maintenance. At $49.95, it offers an entry point into the brand's design lineage.
Verified claims
- Artist Stripe
- Artist Stripe: a 1980s regimental tie reinvention, realized in gold and mother-of-pearl as a subtle brand identifier.
- Authenticity
- Mother-of-pearl decoration is genuine shell.
- Care instructions
- Mother-of-pearl inlay is delicate; keep dry and clean with a soft cloth.
- Clip mechanism
- The tie clip uses a hinged clip mechanism with an exposed spring; the spring-loaded clamp opens when the back plate is pressed and snaps shut to hold the tie and shirt placket together without slipping.
- Brand signifier
- Artist Stripe serves as an implicit brand identifier with a 40-year heritage.
- Material rendering
- Artist Stripe rendered via alternating gold-tone metal and rectangular mother-of-pearl inlays.
- Brand heritage
- The tie clip continues a four-decade design lineage of the Artist Stripe.
- Clip function
- The clip body is a 90% copper, 10% zinc alloy (brass), which stays springy and corrosion-resistant so clamping tension remains consistent with repeated use and light humidity.
- Value
- At $49.95, offers entry point into Paul Smith's design lineage.
- Inlay authenticity
- The listing describes the inlay as mother-of-pearl but does not explicitly confirm whether it is genuine shell.
