Description
This eye catching Bolo Tie has braided black leather and a hand forged sterling silver clasp featuring a stunning, iridescent Natural Black Lip Shell cabochon. The clasp has a sterling silver beaded texture surrounding the stone, the outer edge has a polished hammered texture, and a mechanical clasp on the back. Sterling silver beaded tipped tie ends add the finishing touch.
Natural Black Lip Shell comes from the once living pearl oyster. The cabochons are iridescent grey and black, often with flashes of reds, purples and blues. The Black Lip Shell is believed to be the embodiment of magic and perfection. Its extraordinary texture and distinctive style is most suitable for dynamic, modern people.
You say you’d love to have a Bolo Tie but aren’t sure how to wear one? The traditional way to wear a Bolo Tie is to dress it up with a suit and collared shirt, just swap the necktie for a Bolo. Go business casual with a suit jacket or blazer, dark denim jeans, and collared shirt with the top button undone and wear the Bolo clasp loosened to the third button. Or, swap the blazer for a leather or denim jacket, keeping the collared shirt unbuttoned at the top and the Bolo clasp loosened so it sits around the 3rd button of your shirt and pair it with dark indigo or black jeans and cowboy or similar western heeled boots for a mix of contemporary style. There is no right or wrong way to wear a Bolo Tie as long as you wear it with confidence!
