Staff of Asclepius Tie: Green Serpent Lives -black Tie

So, you need a tie for those required dinners at the Hospital, Med School, and to have peek out of your lap coat when striving to look professional in years to come. More likely, you want to celebrate a loved one's achievement in the field watched over by the Greek God Asclepius. What better than a tie with some subtle connection to the God. This version of the serpent, so thin, so lifelike, is more subtle from a far, but will garner praise upclose. In Greek mythology, the Rod of Asclepius (⚕), [1] also known as the Staff of Asclepius (sometimes also spelled Asklepios or Aesculapius) and as the asklepian, [2] is a serpent-entwined rod wielded by the Greek god Asclepius, a deity associated with healing and medicine. The symbol has continued to be used in modern times, where it is associated with medicine and health care, yet frequently confused with the staff of the god Hermes, the caduceus. Theories have been proposed about the Greek origin of the symbol and its implications. (Wikipedia)
