Sterling silver stylish tie bar, handcrafted using traditional smithing methods from silver sheet
Size:Â 43mm max length (just under 5cm, suitable for regular fit ties - unsuitable for slimline ties)Â 4mm wide, 1mm thick
The general rule to wearing a tie bar is position between the third & fourth buttons of your shirt. Make sure the tie bar has grabbed the placket of the shirt and don't use a tie bar that's wider than the tie.
This style of tie bar is a simple, slide on clip - no fiddly pins!
do not try to pull open the tie bar as you will risk misshaping it - just slide it on & off like a hair grip
This tie bar comes with a silver polishing cloth & a choice of gift box (black or purple ribbon)
Total weight of tie bar is 3.0G
This item carries my full Edinburgh hallmark on the reverse (please see below or here for more information on hallmarks)

MADE TO ORDER
Hallmarks:
This is applicable for silver items made & sold in the U.K
All silver items weighing over 7.78g must be hallmarked by law. A '925' stamp alone is not a hallmark. If anyone tells you the '925' stamp is a hallmark they are not only lying they are also breaking the law!
A hallmark guarantees the precious metal content of the item, and comprises three compulsory marks - a sponsors mark (first two initials of the maker), a fineness mark (925, 916, 999 for example) and an assay office mark (symbol representing one of the four assay offices - London, Birmingham, Sheffield or Edinburgh)
I am registered with Edinburgh Assay Office and my hallmark comprises of the two initials SL, followed by the metal fineness - 925 and then the castle symbol.
This means my items have been tested by the Edinburgh assay office and confirmed with the stamp, to be what they are described as
In most cases, I will send items off to be hallmarked even if they fall under the legal requirement to do so.Â
If sending items out to the assay office hasn't been possible & the item is under the required weight (on some earrings for example), I will stamp them with a '925' mark
