Design, Inspiration & Quality: ‘Victory at Last’ is a unique and high-quality medium-size silk pocket square, Made in England. It has been created in collaboration with leading ‘painter of speed’ John Ketchell. His semi-abstract impressionist style captures speed and drama at the same time as delivering accuracy of reproduction, such that the subject seems to burst into life.

For the original acrylic on canvas work, John was inspired by the famous moment in motorsport history when Aston Martin won Le Mans outright in 1959. In the race, the DBR1 of Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby finally achieved victory for Aston Martin, which had entered every Le Mans since 1931. 

In Macclesfield, the home of English silk printing, the artwork is reproduced with great care. This enables an excellent balance of design colour & clarity between the printed and reverse sides of the AAA quality Mulberry silk twill, ensuring the pocket square looks perfect whichever fold is used. The image is framed by the pocket square’s pale green border and the skilfully hand-rolled & hand-sewn 'shoestring' hem in racing green. The overall quality of this pocket square from the UK's leading maker is what you would normally expect to find only on London's Savile Row or Jermyn Street.

This Medium-Size pocket square measures 33 x 33cm and works perfectly with most fashion-led men's tailoring, which often has a smaller top pocket.

Gift Presentation: 'Victory at Last' is presented in a complimentary Otway & Orford branded gift box with its blueberry-coloured lid and pale blue base. Inside each box, the stylish classic motor racing silk pocket square is tissue-wrapped and accompanied by a card telling the story of the artist and his vibrant artwork. 'Victory at Last' makes a great finishing touch at any time of year.
