A trout modelled in sterling silver, caught mid-leap with the tail swept round and the body scaled and textured along its length. The fins and gill are picked out in fine detail, and the polished finish catches what light there is against a tie.
A tie tac pins through the fabric rather than clipping over it, so it sits flat and holds the tie in place through the day. Small enough to read as a detail from across a room, clear enough to be recognised up close by anyone who fishes.
One for the angler, and an easy choice when a birthday is coming and the usual ideas have run out.
