How to Shop Our Sheepskin Catalog
Color
Looking for a particular shade? Start with color to match your room’s palette or create contrast in your space. Our rugs come in natural whites, rich browns, subtle grays, and one-of-a-kind mottled patterns — never dyed.
Loft
Prefer thick and springy, or sleek and sculptural? Sheepskins vary in wool density and pile height depending on the fleece type. This helps you choose the right rug for comfort, drape, or design texture.
Sheep Origin
Each sheepskin in our shop comes from a distinct European heritage breed. Breed influences not only the look and feel, but also the character and cultural story of the fleece. Browse by breed to connect with traditional craftsmanship and natural diversity.
Thick, Cushy with Loft vs. Flat, Sleek & Textured
Loft refers to the height and density of the wool fibers — higher loft means a cushy, springy feel under your hand or feet. Suffolk, Herdwick, Jacob, Welsh Mountain, for example, are thick and cushy with avg. 3-4 inch wool pile.
Low-loft fleeces have long wool that flows and settles with natural movement — perfect for layering on chairs, beds, or benches.Breeds like Icelandic, Heidschnucke, and Gotland have 5-7 inch fibers are without a strong grain direction and flow all directions.
Natural Colors, Fleece Patterns
Color is one of the easiest ways to narrow your search. Our sheepskins range from soft ivory and white, to deep browns, natural grays, and striking spotted patterns. Every color is natural — no dyes — so tone variations are part of their beauty.

Clean & Fluff With a Brush
The best way to care for your sheepskin is occasional fluffing and brushing. To make this easier, we'll send you a free brush with your order ($15 value).
To fluff the wool and remove dust, shake out the sheepskin from time to time. Do this by grasping one side firmly with two hands and shaking several times. Turn it, and shake it out from the other side.
How do I clean it?
To brush your sheepskin, lay it on a hard flat surface like a table or floor. Draw the brush from the middle of the hide outward with firm even strokes. Turn over and also brush the wool edges. Some wool will come out into the brush, that's normal. Shake and fluff the sheepskin before and after brushing.
You can also clean the sheepskin with gentle strokes of a hand held vacuum.
These are natural products, not factory made. Variations in the wool are normal and the leather backside may have minor scrapes and blemishes from processing the hide.
Do not store long term in a plastic bag to avoid collecting moisture. Sheepskins are best stored in open air with the wool side facing out. Dry clean only, do not soak or machine wash.
