Modena Tangerine

Modena Fabric15279

Modena Tangerine is a richly saturated orange with a warm, burnished glow and a softly mottled surface that catches the light. The plain design reads as tactile and plush rather than flat, giving this colourway real depth.

About this fabric

Part of the Modena collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is made from 100% Polyester and specified for contract use, with a robust 80,000 Martindale rating. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request, and can be professionally dry cleaned in situ or washed at 40°C, subject to the pattern book guidance. Visually, Tangerine is a deep burnt orange with coppery highlights and darker shaded movement across the pile, so it feels warm, energetic and slightly vintage in tone. The surface has a velvet-like richness that softens the intensity of the colour while still keeping it vivid and confident.

How to use it

Use this tangerine shade on an accent chair, banquette or occasional sofa to bring warmth into greys, taupes and dark woods. It also works well in hospitality schemes where a bold but earthy orange can add character without feeling flashy.

A warm burnt orange velvet-look that adds energy to modern seating and tailored schemes.

Pairs well with

Modena Tangerine 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.
