Verdigris

The mottled browns and greens in this Atelier Italseta tie suggest the corrosion of metal, which, like many natural processes, can be harnessed and directed to produce works of art. While the general design can be controlled, the random elements of the reaction produce amazing textures. I probably should have saved this tie for St. Patrick's Day, but that's two days away, and I can't think that far ahead, so I'll have to find something else.
