The Sailor 'King William' Wool Pocket Square

William IV was King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in 1830. At the age of 13, he began a career in the Royal Navy. He enjoyed his time at sea, seeing service in America and the west indies and becoming admiral of the fleet in 1811. In many ways, he laid the foundations for the reign of Victoria and without his brief stint as monarch, her long rule as queen may well have been much more difficult. He is a fairy godfather to the modern British Monarchy, he spent his time opposing the abolition of slavery, a movement on the late 18th and early 19th centuries to end the practice of slavery which although not legal in the United Kingdom but still existed in the British colonies.

The Sailor ‘King William’ Wool Pocket Square takes you back to the good old days of King William at the sea. If you are a warm and calm person this pocket square is a perfect pick. The light and dark blue are associated with depth and stability just like the sea- it forges its own sounds and kindles its own symphony. Just like King William IV whose reign was unexpected but surprisingly turned out good, the Sailor King Pocket Square is a reminder that even the greatest things can come in the smallest of packages.
