Simonnot Godard
Since 1787, Simonnot Godard has been making the finest quality handkerchiefs and pocket squares using traditional artisanal techniques utilising Textiles that are woven by hand in France.
The handkerchiefs are then hand stitched and finished with painstaking attention to detail. Their signature is complicated woven designs - usually where lines of satin cotton are woven in different lines along the edges. These satin patterns are one of the things Simonnot-Godard is best known for, as well as its multi-coloured designs.
