e/Charvet (fabric)

Information
has gloss	eng: A Charvet fabric is woven of silk or acetate in warp-faced rib weave, of a reversed reps type with a double ridge effect. It is characterized by a soft handle and shiny appearance. The bindings create a herringbone effect parallel to the warp, which make this weave suitable for creating faint diagonal stripe effects for ties, for which the fabric is cut on the bias. Patterns on this base are often made with supplemantary weft. The fabric has also been used for scarves and robes.
