My husband is an attorney and owns quite an assortment of ties.  Though I've bought him most of them, none really measure up to the $75 tie he bought for our wedding (T. Hilfiger brand).  Well, until I got this one on a lark for the holidays.  It is truly beautiful and I wouldn't have batted an eye if we had spent 3x times as much.  But at less than 20 bucks, this tie was a true bargain.  If you found this review helpful, please let me know!
