Are they truly wearable?

Yes—designed for your neck, not your mantel.

Are the bow ties really made of wood?

Yep. We use over a dozen different types of actual wood.

Not at all. They’re surprisingly lightweight.

Each tie has an adjustable strap—no woodworking or tying skills required.

Absolutely! Names, images, logos… basically anything short of your entire autobiography.

What occasions are they good for?

Weddings, dances, photoshoots, business meetings—or whenever you want people to say, “Hold up… is your tie wood?”

Nope. They’re layered, finished, and sturdier than most New Year’s resolutions.

Do kids wear them too?

Yes! We have kid sizes as well, and they look adorable. Warning: may cause excessive compliments.

A quick wipe with a dry cloth. Please don’t toss it in the dishwasher.

Do you offer bulk orders?

Yes. Quantity discounts for wedding parties, corporate groups, or your aspiring boy band—all welcome.

1. How are the temple plaques made?

Each plaque is built from 8–12 layers of laser-cut woods, creating depth and dimension.

What woods do you use?

Walnut, maple, cedar, alder, birch, and more—basically the A-list celebrity trees.

Can I request a specific temple?

Yes! If it exists, we can design it. If it’s still being built, we’ll wait patiently with you.

Can you add names or dates?

Of course. A little engraving goes a long way.

Do you create custom designs?

Absolutely. Temples, landmarks, vintage cars, your grandma’s cabin—basically anything that sits still long enough to be laser-cut.

How long does a custom plaque design take?

Usually 1–4 weeks. Art takes time… and so do laser beams.

Are they ready to hang?

Yes. Hang it, stand it, showcase it—you do you

Do you offer different sizes?

They sure do. We offer everything from small 5"×6" displays to big 20"×24" wall pieces (and we can go even larger if you want a real showstopper).

Is there a meaning behind the layers?

The steps represent growth and progression—line upon line. Plus, they just look really cool.

Absolutely. We pack them like they’re going on a worldwide mission.

Huxley – Walnut & Bamboo Moving Wood Gear Bow Tie

Yes, the wooden gears really move!

The Huxley isn't just a wooden bow tie. It's a tiny piece of wearable engineering. The contrasting walnut and bamboo gears actually turn, creating a bow tie that's interactive, unexpected, and seriously fun to wear.

Perfect for engineers, professors, makers, gearheads, STEM students, or anyone who likes their accessories with a little mechanical personality. Wear it to class, a wedding, the office, or your next special event and prepare for people to ask, “Wait...do those gears actually move?”

They do.

Huxley combines naturally dark walnut with lighter bamboo, giving the moving gear mechanism plenty of contrast. Walnut's rich color and beautiful grain also make it one of our favorite woods for laser engraving and detailed designs.

Part of our Modern Collection, Huxley uses our versatile Classic bow tie shape, giving the traditional bow tie a decidedly less traditional upgrade.

These are not your old professor's bow ties!

Size & Fit: Approximately 1.5" tall × 4.5" wide × .5" thick. Adult ties include an adjustable tuxedo strap fitting approximately 13"–24".
