British Curly Sheepskin - Ivory

Description

Dense, rugged, plush — possibly the most versatile sheepskin we carry. Equally at home draped over a chair, layered on a bench, or set as a rug in front of a fireplace where heavier traffic would wear a softer fleece thin. Natural ivory color, undyed.

Dimensions: Medium approx. 38" x 26"; Large approx. 44" x 30". Each skin is unique — colour, marking, and exact size vary slightly between individual items.

Why it's here: Sheepskins have been a natural part of rural homes and farmhouses for centuries — draped over benches, layered on chairs, set beside the bed where bare feet land first on a winter morning. We source ours from small independent farms across Europe, where the sheep roam freely and none are bred for their hides; every skin is a byproduct of animal agriculture. They're tanned and finished at some of the oldest family-run tanneries in Europe, by people who've been doing this for generations. We use them everywhere in our own house — draped over chairs and benches, one on either side of the bed, and our little dog Biscuit now refuses to sleep on anything else. She's a diva.

What you're getting: One British Curly sheepskin in natural undyed ivory, available in medium or large.

Care: Natural sheepskins contain lanolin, which keeps them naturally soft and clean — they rarely need a full wash. Day-to-day care is a good shake, a brush with a metal slicker, and a vacuum to finish. Keep away from direct sun, radiators, wood stoves, and damp rooms like bathrooms. Full care instructions are printed on the label on the back of every sheepskin; with proper care, yours should last a lifetime.
