§ 01 — Preface

The term pyroclast points to formal kinship, not to a design intention.

The slate structure remains untreated. Its fracture lines and transitions shape the appearance and reflect the tension between geological mass and constructive order.

The tie is put on over the head instead of being knotted. The leather band carries the slate segments, which lie flat on the sternum.

§ 02 — Structure

The tie divides into dark, overlapping slate plates whose chevron cut yields to the movement of the body.

§ 03 — Construction

Low material thickness and a weight-reduced, segmented construction keep the tie light. Movable connections allow the drape of a classic tie.

§ 04 — Material

AUREIR objects are crafted from carefully selected materials. Conscious handling preserves their presence over time.

For cleaning, a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth is sufficient.

Aggressive cleaning agents, polishes, or oils are not suitable.

All objects are designed for use. Nevertheless, protect them from strong impacts, point loads, and prolonged exposure to moisture or heat.

Avoid any contact with grease, perfume, and cosmetic substances.

§ 05 — Acquisition

Each object is made individually, with natural variations in the slate and individual differences in the finishing.
