About this fabric

This colourway reads as a fresh ivory with a faint creamy undertone, softened by the fabric's fine texture and the lightly mottled surface visible in the swatch. The 100% polyester composition and contract usage make it a practical choice for hard-working schemes, while the 80,000 martindale rating supports demanding upholstery applications. Supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it is specified with durability and fire performance in mind, and the after care notes allow professional dry cleaning in situ or washing at 40°C. The finish has a quiet sheen rather than a glossy shine, so the overall effect stays elegant and understated.

How to use it

Use Modena Ivory on tailored seating, banquettes or headboards where a pale neutral can soften stronger finishes nearby. It pairs well with limed woods, chalky paint shades and darker accent cushions for contrast.

A pale, versatile neutral that lifts upholstery with a clean, quietly refined finish.

Modena Ivory 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.
