This is a leather free sheepskin which is a striking addition to any room in your home. Use it in your living room on the couch for added luxury. Place on the end of your bed for a decadent touch.

The process of making a felted rug

The process of felting a vegetarian rug is very labor intensive, and part of this is the gentle combing and cleaning of the fleece. However some small particles of dried grass may remain.

About the Sheep

This is from a Hebridean Ewe. She is a very rare sheep, with prized wool. The rug is made only from her wool, so she is alive and well, gently roaming on our hill farm.

About the Shearing process

Our sheep are all sheared by hand, on our family farm by a professional shearer, to minimise the stress to the animal. Shearing is a very important process that helps the sheep by removing last year's wool growth and ensuring that the sheep does not get too hot which can lead to iIllness.
