Modena Fabric13108

Modena Wine shows a deep, garnet-leaning red with a softly lustrous surface and subtle tonal movement across the pile. The plain design reads rich and tactile rather than flashy, with the darker ground giving the colour extra depth.

About this fabric

From the Modena collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is made from 100% polyester and specified for contract use, with an 80,000 Martindale rating for hard-working interiors. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and other fire treatments are available upon request. The swatch itself reads as a dark wine red with burgundy and oxblood shifts, catching the light in fine specks that soften the overall tone. Its close, velvety-looking texture gives it a refined finish that feels substantial enough for seating while still offering a neat, uniform appearance. Care is flexible too, with professional dry clean in situ or washing at 40°C, subject to the pattern book instructions.

How to use it

Use this colour on statement chairs, banquettes, or stools where the deep red can bring warmth without looking bright. It pairs well with dark timber, brass, and earthy neutrals for a tailored, low-sheen scheme.

A rich wine tone that adds depth and polish to tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Modena Wine 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.
