It’ll Put a Hex on You!
True collar bars, which have to be worn with a pinhole-collar shirt, are one of the rarest and most refined examples of collar jewelry in menswear, and this collar bar from Fort Belvedere represents the apex of accessories.
Featuring a unique hexagonal end design and a polished silver finish, this collar bar adds a touch of contemporary sophistication to both formal and semi-formal outfits. It functions by connecting the two sides of a dress shirt collar, creating a lifted and structured appearance that accentuates the tie knot. The silver finish offers a timeless and versatile look, making it a staple in any gentleman’s wardrobe.
When styling the Collar Bar with Hex End in Silver, pair it with a crisp white or light-colored dress shirt to allow the silver finish to stand out. This accessory complements a variety of tie styles, from classic silk ties to more textured options like knit ties.
For a cohesive look, coordinate the collar bar with other silver-toned accessories, such as cufflinks or a tie clip. This collar bar is particularly well-suited for business meetings, formal events, or any occasion where a refined appearance is desired.

Why You Should Wear Collar Jewelry
A defining style feature of the 1920s and 1930s, collar bars were regularly worn by well-dressed gentlemen during the Golden Age of Menswear to elevate their ties and craft unique, dashing looks. Revive this exceptional sartorial tradition with Fort Belvedere and our debonair collar bar, designed to be worn with a pinhole collar.
Hugely popular during the heyday of the Golden Age of Menswear in the Twenties and Thirties, collar jewelry has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity thanks to television shows like Boardwalk Empire and Mad Men. Even James Bond is wearing them!
Collar jewelry, like the collar bar featured here, is not only a distinctive accessory that adds unexpected visual interest and a dash of vintage flair. It also elevates and complements your tie knot and collar, adding new versatility and debonair charm to items already found in your wardrobe.
Make Sure Your Collar Bar Fits Your Collar
In order to wear a collar bar, you must own a shirt that comes with pin holes already present and your collar bar has to span the distance between those holes.
To determine the correct size for you, measure the distance between the holes on your collar with a ruler or measuring tape.
If the distance is between 35 and 38 mm, you want the 43mm collar bar.
If the distance is between 39 and 42 mm, you want the 47 mm collar bar.
For any distance over 42 mm, you want the 51 mm collar bar.
These distances will ensure that the collar bar is just tight enough to neatly hold the collar in place without distending your collar.
Jewelry That Gets Better with Age
With regular use, your Fort Belvedere jewelry should not require any special cleaning and will naturally develop a beautiful, subtle patina that imparts personality and uniqueness.
If desired, a quality precious metal cleaner can be used sparingly to bring out a brighter shine on the metal, but this is not necessary. All of our jewelry is sturdy enough that you can wear it without concern and can look forward to passing them on to your children or even grandchildren.
Collar Bars Made to Last
As a piece of jewelry that is regularly worn, it is paramount that your collar bar be made to last. That’s why we decided to craft ours out of a solid base metal, either 925 sterling silver, brass, or stainless steel. Durable, pliable, and strong, a base metal was truly the best material for these collar pins as it won’t wear down or break from the repetitive motion of screwing and unscrewing the end caps of this collar bar.
To give this collar bar a beautiful luster, we then thickly coated its body in a precious metal. Doing so imparts the incredible beauty of gold or platinum to this piece of jewelry without adversely affecting its functionality or durability. Thanks to the thick plating and our particular attention to quality, this collar bar appears as though it is made from solid gold or platinum and will elicit compliments from everyone who sees it.
