Modena Cloud is a softly shimmering plain in a cool cloud-grey palette, with a gentle brushed look that shifts between silvered grey and pale beige as the light moves across it.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, Modena Cloud is a contract-grade plain with an impressive 80,000 Martindale, making it a practical choice for demanding interiors. The swatch shows a muted cloud-grey ground with a subtle warm undertone and a lightly speckled, linen-like texture that gives the surface depth without introducing a strong pattern. Its finish catches the light in a restrained, almost pearly way, so the colour reads fresh and airy rather than flat. Supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it can also be professionally dry cleaned in situ or washed at 40°C, subject to the pattern book’s full care guidance.

How to use it

Use Modena Cloud to soften contemporary upholstery, banquettes or headboards where you want a light neutral that still feels tailored. It also works well with chalky whites, brushed metals and pale oak for a calm, elevated scheme.

A cool, versatile neutral that reads softly metallic and pairs easily with timber, stone and muted colour accents.

Pairs well with

Modena Cloud 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.
