This is a 100% silk twill pocket square featuring a hand-illustrated Louisiana pelican design on a light grey background, hand-rolled hems, and a keepsake gift box — made in Mississippi by Gilberti Silk Arts.
Add a touch of Southern charm and sophisticated style to your wardrobe with this exquisite silk pocket square featuring a beautifully detailed Louisiana pelican design. Crafted from luxurious, high-quality silk, this pocket square boasts a soft hand and a subtle sheen that will elevate any suit or blazer.
The grey colorway gives this pelican a quieter, more versatile register than its blue-green counterpart — the same iconic design, rendered against a light grey background that pairs naturally with charcoal suits, grey blazers, and the full range of classic menswear neutrals. The iconic pelican, a symbol of Louisiana's rich natural heritage, is a perfect conversation starter and a thoughtful gift for the discerning gentleman, bird enthusiast, or anyone with a connection to the Pelican State.
Each pocket square is meticulously hand-finished with a hand-rolled hem ensuring durability and a polished look. Whether you're dressing for a wedding, a business meeting, or a special occasion, this silk pelican pocket square is a versatile and timeless accessory.

Q: What size is this pocket square?
A: It measures approximately 12" x 12", which is the standard size for men's suit and blazer breast pockets.
Q: How does this differ from the other Gilberti pelican pocket square?
A: The design is the same hand-illustrated Louisiana pelican, but this version has a light grey background rather than the original's blue-green colorway. The grey makes it more neutral and versatile — a natural pair for charcoal suits, grey blazers, and classic menswear neutrals — while the blue-green version leans into the coastal palette.
Q: How do I fold a pocket square?
A: The three most popular folds for this square are the flat fold (clean and minimal), the one-point fold (classic and sharp), and the puff fold (relaxed and editorial). A full illustrated folding guide is available at gilbertisilkarts.com.
Q: Is this pocket square made from real silk?
A: Yes. It is crafted from 100% silk twill — a mid-weight weave that holds its shape beautifully in the pocket and has a subtle, luxurious sheen.
Q: How do I care for a silk pocket square?
A: Hand wash in cool water with a gentle detergent, then lay flat to dry. Do not wring or machine wash. Warm iron to de-wrinkle if necessary.
Q: Does it come gift-ready?
A: Yes. Every Gilberti Silk Arts pocket square ships in a keepsake gift box with a ribbon and crown charm — no additional wrapping needed. It is ready to give for birthdays, anniversaries, Father's Day, weddings, or any occasion.
Q: What makes this a good Louisiana gift?
A: The brown pelican is Louisiana's state bird and a beloved symbol of the Gulf Coast. This design is a meaningful souvenir or gift for anyone with ties to Louisiana, New Orleans, or the wider Gulf South — and the grey colorway makes it especially wearable for men whose wardrobe runs toward cooler, more neutral tones.
Q: Is this a good groomsmen gift?
A: Absolutely — particularly for Louisiana-themed weddings or any groom's party that wants something with genuine regional identity. The grey background makes it an especially versatile choice across different suit colors. For wedding parties, we offer special orders — please reach out directly so we can coordinate. Special orders typically take about 4 weeks for turnaround.
Q: Is this handmade in the United States?
A: Yes. Each pocket square is hand-finished with hand-rolled hems in Mississippi by Gilberti Silk Arts — a small, woman-owned luxury accessories brand rooted in the American South.
