The Tigris Shard Silk Tie

Some wear lines.
Others wear language.

The Tigris Shard is a silk tie woven in deep obsidian, its surface etched in curling copper and cyan—a fluid paisley that shimmers like water pressed into ancient stone. The design pulses with cartographic precision: each swirl suggesting a current, each motif an echo. It doesn’t seek attention. It commands awareness.

This is not flamboyance.
It is encrypted formality.

The Story: “The Tigris Shard”

Beneath the brittle crust of a forgotten riverbed east of Nineveh, a ceramic shard was uncovered. Not catalogued. Not decoded. Its glyphs defied every known script. But its pattern—organic yet intentional—seemed eerily familiar.

That shard became the foundation of The Tigris Shard tie. The cyan invokes the Tigris itself—once believed to carry knowledge from the divine to the fallen. The copper, like dried ink, mimics the movements of ancient pens that never wrote letters—only impressions.

This is not ornamentation.
It is orientation.

To wear The Tigris Shard is to acknowledge that some messages are carved before they are spoken.
Some truths are drawn, not told.

Not a tie.
A map for those who’ve stopped asking for directions.
