What is it called?

[Dunaruna]

Stupid question time, for JB or anyone else that might know.<br /><br />In the photo of Elizabeth & JB, JB is wearing an unusual neck tie. I have one that my grandfather gave to me and it is very similar. In fact I prefer to wear it rather than a conventional necktie. <br /><br />What is it? What's it called? Is there a history to this type of tie?
