Rare 1940s Burgundy Check Handpainted Sailing Tie By Genie Creations
Exceptional 1940s Handpainted Sailboat Rayon Swing Tie By Genie Creations
A striking 1940s American swing tie by the highly collectable Genie Creations, beautifully hand-painted with a dynamic sailing scene. Set against a rich claret ground with a geometric diamond pattern, this meticulously crafted tie features a sleek yacht at full sail, its mast, rigging and reflections rendered in expressive mid-century brushwork.
Produced during the golden age of novelty neckwear, Genie Creations ties are admired for their artistry and quality, and this example is no exception — a bold, characterful piece perfect for the gentleman who enjoys stand-out mid-century style or has a passion for sailing. The generous 1940s swing width allows the artwork to display beautifully when worn, making this ideal for vintage ensembles, statement evening looks, and costumiers sourcing period-correct wardrobe for film, theatre, and television.
A superb gift for a vintage-wearing husband, a sailing enthusiast, or a collector of fine novelty ties.
