08 Carbon
Ghent Fabric08
Ghent 08 Carbon has a deep, warm charcoal-grey tone that reads softly rather than starkly black. Its closely spaced vertical ribs create a fine corded texture, with subtle light-and-shadow variation across the surface.

About this fabric
The narrow vertical ribs run consistently across the swatch, giving this colourway a gently tactile, structured appearance. Its charcoal-grey shade has a muted warmth, while the raised lines catch the light in delicate alternating bands. The dense-looking surface makes it visually more substantial than a plain flat weave and particularly suited to upholstery. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this fabric.
How to use it
Use 08 Carbon on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its warm charcoal tone can anchor softer greys, natural timber and brushed metal. The vertical rib is especially effective on clean-lined upholstery, adding texture without introducing a bold pattern.
The fine vertical rib adds understated texture and a softly structured finish to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with
08 Carbon is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it
Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
