Curtains & Light Upholstery

Ghent Corten

Ghent is one of our most popular fabrics.  A perfect weight for upholstery, drapery or accesories. Ghent has a beautiful color range, simple colors done well that quickly become the focus of a room or palette. Deeply saturated dyes give a welcome depth to this handsome linen textile.
