DESIGNER'S NOTES

A dark blue silk Fox & Chave tie with a repeat pattern of crowns.

The crown as a motif has symbolized authority, legitimacy, and sovereignty across cultures and historical periods. In European art, crowns appear in portraiture, heraldry, and decorative objects to denote monarchy, divine right, and social hierarchy.

Different styles, such as open circlets, closed imperial crowns, or laurel wreaths, carry distinct connotations of power, victory, or honor. Beyond royal representation, crowns have also been used allegorically to signify achievement, spiritual triumph, or moral authority.

In decorative arts, the crown motif adorns furniture, silver, textiles, and architecture, combining visual elegance with symbolic weight. Its repeated use reinforces social order, ceremonial significance, and the interplay between political and cultural identity.
