- Free UK shipping – Worldwide over £250
These exquisitely decorated Ottoman pistols are inspired by the myth of 'Selim's Hammer' – a weapon of supposed invincible power that belonged to Sultan Selim III. They are positioned within a hexagonal pattern inspired by the Damascus Tiles and created from sunny yellow and orange roses. This mesmerising pocket square with its rich russets and violets explores the relationships between beauty and violence and mankind and nature in stunning printed detail.
The warm colour palette works superbly with a pale blue jacket, will pick up the details in a rich tweed and really pop in a darker blazer. It is more than just an accessory it is a conversation starter.
In terms of size this is a luxury pocket square which is generous enough to create complex folds, be used as a jaunty neckerchief or even to wrap around your favourite summer hat.
Our silk squares are printed and hemmed in the England and come in branded presentation cases so they can be kept in pristine condition.
Furious Goose is a luxury British accessories brand for those who dare to be different.
Unique pocket squares, silk ties, square scarves and long silk-wool wraps show exquisitely crafted antique firearms braced in arabesques of roses. This explosive collection juxtaposes beauty and violence in exquisite colour and intricate detail.
Antique weapons have a strange allure. The love, care and artistry that was devoted to these violent objects is remarkable. And the image of a gun still has power today as Andy Warhol showed with his pop-art.
In Guns and Roses we show the terrible artistry of mankind surrounded by the beauty of nature.
Heat and passion in this sophisticated red and orange palette. We've used maroons and purples as a ground and small pops of blueish jade and bright yellow roses as highlights.
