Vintage 1950s Slim Tie by Monteil Copper Brown Imported Fabric

This vintage 1950s slim tie dates to the late 1950s (c. 1957–1960) and features a textured abstract pattern in warm brown, black and copper tones. The design is typical of the period, combining jagged geometric forms with a subtle woven effect. Made from “imported fabric” and labelled Monteil, this tie reflects the clean, modern styling that emerged just before the ultra-skinny ties of the early 1960s.

The tie measures 53" in length and 2 1/2" at its widest point, placing it squarely in the late-50s slim silhouette—narrower than early 1950s ties, yet not as narrow as the Mod-era styles that followed. The ends are unlined.
