@the_duke_raoul @VandaClothing Born on StyleForum! If you ever get to Singapore, write to Diana and Gerald. They were very generous with their time and local knowledge when I visited.
Good thread by Derek. @VandaClothing are my favorite ties. And the couple who run the company are wonderful folks. Highly recommend. (Fwiw I think all of mine have interlining)
If you want a high-quality tie, check out Sam Hober (among the best value, as they're bespoke and fully handmade for about $110). Also EG Cappelli, Drake's, Shibumi Firenze, and Vanda Fine Clothing (often made with no interlining, so they're super light and scarf-like).
