This is a 100% silk twill pocket square in deep maroon with a printed grey striped border, hand-rolled hems, and a keepsake gift box — made in Mississippi by Gilberti Silk Arts.
Maroon is one of the great serious colors in menswear — rich, confident, and deeply versatile across seasons and occasions. Paired with a grey printed striped border, it becomes something more considered: a square with a design sensibility that signals the wearer pays attention to detail at the level most people never notice.
The printed grey stripe runs the full perimeter of the square, framing the maroon field the way a grey mat frames a photograph — clean, deliberate, and finished. It is a design choice more common on European luxury squares than on anything you will encounter in the standard pocket square market. The edges are hand-rolled and hand-sewn in Mississippi, as with every Gilberti square.
Against a charcoal suit it is quietly authoritative. Against a navy blazer it adds warmth without competing. Against a grey herringbone it creates a tonal story that a serious dresser will appreciate. It works as well in a boardroom as it does at a fall wedding, a football weekend dinner, or any occasion that calls for something that looks like it was chosen with care.

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: What is the striped border on this pocket square?
A: The striped border is a printed design element — a crisp grey multi-stripe pattern printed along the perimeter of the silk, creating a framed border around the maroon field. The edges are hand-rolled and hand-sewn as with all Gilberti squares; the stripe itself is part of the print design rather than a separate construction. The result is a square with visual complexity and a finished, framed look when folded in the pocket — a detail more common on European luxury squares than on anything you will find in the standard pocket square market.
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, Father's Day, anniversaries, or any occasion.
Q: What outfits does maroon and grey pair well with?
A: Maroon and grey is one of the most versatile color combinations in classic menswear. It pairs naturally with a charcoal or grey suit for a tonal, authoritative look; a navy blazer for warmth and contrast; a grey herringbone sport coat for a seasonal, textured pairing; or a white dress shirt for clean simplicity. It works year-round — understated in summer, deeply appropriate in fall and winter — and crosses from business dress to formal occasions without effort.
Q: Who is this for?
A: The man who reaches for maroon the way others reach for red — knowing it is the more considered choice. The dresser who notices the border before he notices the color. Anyone whose wardrobe runs toward classic, quality-first choices — and anyone whose team happens to wear maroon and grey.
Q: Is this a good groomsmen gift?
A: A strong option for fall or winter weddings, formal celebrations, and any groom's party that wants a color story with depth and elegance. The maroon and grey combination photographs beautifully and works across a wide range of 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.
