Sheepskin 17
ORIGIN: This sheepskin variety comes from Iceland
SIZE — Measurements are roughly 49” long by 30” wide
FUR LENGTH — 8”
COLOR —Mix of cream and light toffee with a grey base.
TEXTURE — Medium, soft texture sheepskin.
THICKNESS — Medium thickness
DISCLAIMER: These are a natural product and as such will have some imperfections that make them unique. This may include:
“armpits” which are on four corners of the sheepskin. Sheep naturally don’t grow fur there so they may appear to be bald patches!
Matting. As wool naturally matts in nature to protect the sheep, you may see some matting on the sheepskin. This is naturally occurring in the tanning process and the sign of a natural product!
Shedding. Some shedding is to be expected, just like with natural rugs like jute. You can expect some shedding as wool behaves similarly to hair!
Small patches of fur missing. These are not noticeable to the eye unless you dig deep in the wool and hunt for them! Sometimes sheep have incidents occur that prevent wool from growing back (like rubbing against a tree or getting caught in a fence!) and they do not change or affect the quality of your sheepskin.
Small cuts of scrapes on the leather, or markings on the back. In the tanning process, the leather is scraped clean. No matter how careful the tanners are, some scratches may occur as damp leather is quite sensitive to tears at that stage of the process! When dried and tanned, leather is extremely durable and a small scratch or hole will not affect the quality.
