M575 Burnt Orange

M575 Burnt Orange brings a warm, earthy depth to the Moderna collection, combining a burnt orange-brown ground with subtle tonal variation. Its close horizontal weave gives the surface a tactile, quietly irregular character.

About this fabric

This colourway is woven in layered horizontal lines, with a deep burnt orange base softened by brown, taupe, olive and muted rust threads. The fine slubs and uneven thread density catch the light in small shifts, preventing the dark warm tone from appearing flat. Its substantial-looking woven surface reads particularly well for upholstery, where the linear texture can remain visible across a larger form. No performance features or further technical specifications are recorded for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair this brown-leaning burnt orange with warm timber, aged leather and stone neutrals for an earthy scheme. It would bring grounded colour and woven texture to a sofa, occasional chair or upholstered headboard.

Use this warm, brown-tinged burnt orange on upholstered seating where its irregular woven texture can add depth.

M575 Burnt Orange 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.
