About this fabric

This Modena colourway shows a muted camel beige base with lighter golden-beige highlights and faint vertical texturing across the surface. The plain design style and softly variegated weave give it a relaxed, refined look rather than a flat, solid appearance. Made in 100% polyester for contract use, it offers a hard-wearing 80,000 Martindale rating and is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852. It can be professionally dry cleaned in situ or washed at 40°C, subject to the pattern book’s care guidance. The overall effect is warm, understated and practical, with enough tonal depth to feel finished on upholstered pieces.

How to use it

Use it on sofas, dining chairs or ottomans where you want a warm neutral that still feels polished. Its camel tone sits well with oak, tan leather and chalky off-whites, while the subtle sheen keeps larger upholstered surfaces from looking heavy.

A warm neutral that brings an easy, tailored look to seating and banquettes.

Pairs well with

Modena Camel 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.
