Modena Silver

Modena Fabric13125

Modena Silver reads as a softly mottled silver-grey with a gentle, almost cloudy surface. The close weave gives it a tailored, quietly tactile look rather than a flat solid.

About this fabric

Part of the Modena collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is woven in 100% polyester and specified for contract use, with an 80,000 Martindale rating for demanding interiors. The swatch shows a cool silver-grey ground broken by subtle haze-like variations, giving the cloth depth without a strong pattern. Its surface has a fine, slightly textured finish that catches the light softly, so the tone shifts from pale stone to brushed pewter as it moves. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and can be professionally dry cleaned in situ or washed at 40°C, subject to the pattern book guidance.

How to use it

Use Modena Silver on compact seating, banquettes or contract upholstery where a calm grey needs to feel bright rather than heavy. It also works well alongside charcoal, white and brushed metal details to keep the room crisp and composed.

A refined neutral that pairs easily with both warm wood and cooler metal finishes.

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.
