Vitaliano Pancaldi 'Cuzzens' Tie

The company’s founder, Vitaliano Pancaldi, was born in Bologna in 1928. He was only 17 years old when the American armed forces entered and occupied the city in April 1945. He met an American officer and not only became his personal guide, but also a true point of reference. In fact, when the soldiers needed new clothing, Vitaliano began looking for people qualified to make shirts and ties, and who could bring a very small workshop to life in the heart of Bologna. This tie has been gently used.
