tie pin

Neckwear jewelry piece

A tie pin is a decorative pin used to secure a necktie to the shirt beneath it, preventing the tie from shifting or blowing about.

Also called a tiepin or tie tack.

The functional purpose has largely given way to fashion—tie pins now serve mainly as accessories or subtle displays of personality or status.
