The pattern on the Museum’s French Dot Tie is taken from a French sample book of the 1890s of collar fabrics.
Many thousands of swatches are mounted in the book, including some 3,750 stylized floral and geometric patterned silks; 2368 fancy weaves; 343 stripes; 158 prints of fancy weaves; 109 twills printed with white dye; and 75 brocades. In this understated and urbane pattern, polka dots appear to miniaturize and highlight the check pattern of the background.
