Vintage 1930s Bird Necktie Art Deco Novelty Tie Navy Blue Woven Rayon Jacquard

This vintage novelty necktie dates to the Art Deco era and features an all-over pattern of flying birds woven in shades of blue, cream and coppery gold against a navy blue ground. The large-scale bird motif and dramatic proportions are characteristic of men's fashion from the mid-to-late 1930s.

Unlike later printed novelty ties, the design is woven directly into the fabric as a detailed jacquard, giving the birds texture and depth. The tie retains its original untipped construction and short length, both features commonly seen in pre-war neckwear. The result is a striking and highly wearable example of 1930s men's fashion that pairs beautifully with vintage suits, sport coats and period-inspired wardrobes.

This Art Deco novelty tie showcases the bold styling and craftsmanship that collectors of vintage menswear seek out. The woven bird design is both distinctive and elegant, making it suitable for wear as well as display in a collection of pre-war accessories.

The maker is unknown. The material is unlabelled and appears to be rayon jacquard.
