About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, Modena FR Antique comes on a 140cm width with a 15.5cm rail-roaded pattern repeat, making the stripe sit cleanly across a wider run. In the swatch, the bands read as antique cream, camel, tobacco brown, soft grey and weathered coral, with a gently speckled texture that keeps the finish from looking flat. The overall effect is warm and understated rather than bright, with the yellowed gold notes and dusty pinks adding depth between the darker brown lines. Its narrow stripe rhythm feels tailored but relaxed, so the design keeps its character even when used over larger upholstered pieces or simple curtain drops.

How to use it

This colourway works well with oak, walnut and worn brass, where the antique gold and taupe tones can echo natural timber. Pair it with plain linens or matte neutrals to let the stripe do the talking without overpowering a room.

A warm vintage stripe that layers easily with timber, linen and aged metals.

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.
