Sunstone Motif Silk-Wool Pocket Square

Style is Always in Season

This silk-wool blend pocket square has been decorated with a historic hunting scene, depicting rabbits, deer, and stags with stylized green and red vegetation on a sunstone field. The tones in this pocket square are somewhat muted, and as such are well-suited to transitional seasons but can be worn year-round. You can also easily dress this pocket square up or down as the formality of the occasion demands.

How To Accessorize

The sunstone body of this pocket square is extremely versatile and can be worn with jackets of any color, from charcoal, navy, and dark brown to olive, taupe, and cream. If wearing an off-white jacket, simply ensure that there is sufficient contrast to avoid appearing muddy.

When situating this pocket square within your larger ensemble, you can pick out one of its many colors in your accessories, such as your socks or neckwear. You can also utilize colors that pair well with the pocket square’s body color of sunstone, such as navy blue, dusty pink, dark brown, sage green, burgundy, teal, plum and pale yellow.

How to Style this Pocket Square

This pocket square features on its body a colorful zoological hunting motif and plain edge with high contrast shoestring border. As such, it can effectively be styled in three different ways depending on your chosen pocket square fold.

A fold that emphasizes the border of the pocket square, like a banker’s fold, will present the simple body color and high-contrast edge detailing for an understated appearance. A fold that highlights the body of the pocket square, such as a puff fold, puts the unique hunting motif on full display. Finally, a fold that incorporates both elements of the pocket square, like the Upside-Down Puff, showcases both elements for a very dapper look.

The Perfect Blend of Silk and Wool

This pocket square is made from a blend of silk and wool, combining the color intensity and subtle shine of the former with the durability and structure of the latter. The result is a pocket square with an impeccable appearance that can be easily paired with many other fabrics.

It should be noted that printed silk-wool pocket squares are not as commonly found as silk pocket squares because it is difficult to create the perfect blend for the chest pocket. While most pocket squares are now printed in China on inkjet printers, Fort Belvedere silk-wool pocket squares are screen-printed by hand in England before being meticulously hand rolled.

Less shiny than pure silk examples, silk-wool pocket squares have a beautiful hand and drape to them that makes them especially compatible with casual sport coat combinations, as well as all kinds of tweed and country wear. However, you can also combine them with business suits in gray or blue for an understated, sophisticated look.

Unlike pure silk, linen, or cotton, this silk-wool blend is very springy, allowing it to easily retain its shape while resisting wrinkles. If you decide to switch from a puff fold to a crown fold, you will not need to worry about this pocket square acquiring unsightly wrinkles.

Storage

Although popularly considered a delicate material, silk and silk-wool blends are a very strong fiber that resists wrinkling. However, if left folded up for hours or days, creasing and wrinkles will eventually set in.

To prevent creasing and wrinkling, remove your pocket square when undressing and fold it into a square before storing it in a cool, dark area, like a drawer or cabinet, to protect it from sunlight and dust.

Pressing

If heavily crumpled, you should first attempt to use a garment steamer on a low setting to relax the wrinkles.

If the wrinkles persist, place a cotton cloth on top of your pocket square and then iron on top of it around the center, using the delicate setting.

Do not run the iron over the edges of the pocket square as this will damage the hand-rolled edges.

Cleaning

If your pocket square should become stained or dirty, do not wash it by immersing it in water. Instead, create a solution of tepid water and mild detergent and spot clean the pocket square with a clean cloth as needed.

If the stain persists, take your pocket square to a reputable dry cleaner that specializes in the handling of delicate fabrics.
