Devon sheepskins, from one of England's oldest sheepskin tanneries, that still use traditional techniques.
Locally sourced sheepskins are tanned to produce a luxurious sheepskin rug, a perfect touch of luxury for benches, chairs, back of beds or wherever you choose.
The traditional processing techniques have been handed down over the years to the current highly skilled craftsmen and the use of the local sheepskins makes these a sought-after product. There are many imported versions on the market - these are the real thing, beautifully soft and textured to the touch.
All will vary in size but approx .100cm to 90cm long x 50 to 60cm at widest point.
New for this year a stunning Linen colour - shown in the last two pictures and in the last picture on top of a white one, to show the difference.
Care Instructions:
Soft Brush Cleaning - Your sheepskin is naturally dirt and stain resistant, making it wonderfully low maintenance. A quick brush with a soft brush and a gentle shake will restore its full, fluffy appearance. Brushing allows air back into the natural fibres, bringing back its lustre.
Spot Cleaning: For light soiling, simply use a damp, clean cloth to spot clean the affected area.
Deeper Cleaning: For heavier soiling, hand wash or machine wash at no more than 30°C on a gentle wool cycle. Use a specialist sheepskin detergent—we recommend Woolskin Woolwash & Shampoo for Sheepskin, Lambskin, Shearling, Fleece & Woollens.
Standard washing powders or pods contain harsh detergents that can attack the suede, making it brittle and potentially discolouring the fleece. A specialist wool detergent keeps the skin supple whilst gently removing dust mites, pet allergens, and mould spores.
Drying: Air dry in a well-ventilated space away from direct sunlight. You may tumble dry on low heat if preferred, but never use a radiator or heater. Once dry, shake, lightly brush, and stretch out your sheepskin.
Natural Characteristics: Sheepskin is a natural product—minor discolouration may occur during washing or prolonged sun exposure. A distinctive lanolin smell is normal and will fade with airing.
