ADD OLD WHITE- to make ' Gentelman'
Add equal parts of Graphite and Old White to make a really elegant charcoal grey that remind me of a Saville Row suit so I've called it GENTLEMAN

An oak chest of drawers with a print of cow parsley in Graphite and the table top done in Graphite too.

ADD MORE WHITE- to make 'Uffizi'
Add 3 parts of Old White to 1 part of Graphite to make a warm sophisticated grey I've called UFFIZI after the Florentine art gallery

Fabrics and paint colours that work well with Graphite

Emperor's Silk

Paris Noir et Lin ticking

Using Emperor's Silk as a base with Graphite on top is beautiful way to achieve the look of an old lacquerwork piece. Imagine it on a console table.
