M571 Gunmetal
Moderna Fabric
M571 Gunmetal is a deep, cool grey woven with dense charcoal linework that forms a fine, irregular grid across the surface. Its closely packed texture gives the colour a layered, tactile appearance rather than a flat solid finish.

About this fabric
The dense woven surface is built from tiny, irregular charcoal marks over a cool gunmetal-grey ground, creating a near-grid effect. Broken lines and tonal variation give this colourway noticeable depth, while lighter threads subtly catch across the face. A restrained warm brown note is visible along the lower edge of the photographed swatch, adding contrast to the otherwise cool palette. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.
How to use it
Use M571 Gunmetal on a tailored chair, sofa or headboard where its cool grey depth can anchor softer neutrals, black accents and pale timber. The small-scale texture also works well across larger upholstered forms without introducing a strong repeat.
The cool gunmetal ground and dense charcoal texture bring understated depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside M571 Gunmetal without fighting it. 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.
