Sterling silver tie pin

Nice tie pin, fits the 2.5 - 3” ties I wear pretty well. Has the 925 stamp so seems to be sterling. Has a bit of a ridged pattern which is cool.

I bought this last month after losing my Bobby pin title JCrew tie pin. Total bummer, And JCrew no longer sells them. This was my next best option for replacement! If you guys see this, this is a great tie clip!

I've used this thing a few times now and I like it a lot. Looks great. I also got it on a very good sale, which is nice. Another reviewer on here was disappointed that it's rather thin/narrow. I knew this going in, and I actually like that it's this way. It's narrowness is complimented by the fact that it's sterling silver (which is somewhat shiny), so it strikes a good balance of being fancy/refined without being too flashy or gaudy. It's hugs the tie pretty tight, and I haven't really had any issues with it slipping. It IS actually sterling silver, btw-- it has the S925 engraving. However, it's a little short, and works best for slimmer ties (2.75 inches) so it can stay firmly attached to your shirt placket without making your tie off center. Also, its totally smooth on the inside. Would be nice if it had some texture so it really grabs the tie/placket.

I haven't worn this yet, but wanted to replace an older J.Crew Slide on Tie Bar that had been lost (it was the perfect size and a brushed silver). This tie bar is extremely small...about the width of a toothpick. I should've paid closer attention to the dimensions in the description, but a picture of the tiebar in use would be helpful for perspective. Disappointed. A+ for packaging, but that's apparently what I paid for. Returning.
