MOLE WILD WOOL RUG

This beautiful Wild Living Wool rug is from one of my lambs called MOLE .
 
The nature of these LIVING WOOL RUGS means they look like sheepskins, but the sheep is still alive in my flock and munching away on pasture to grow next years fleece for me. I use the ancient felting technique (I teach this method in workshops and online) to create a strong, resilient yet flexible backing which is just as hardy as leather in many ways.
 
On the long fleece side  It is super soft, fluffy and an pearlescent shine of multicolour brown, black, copper and silver colours. The size is 120 x 105 cm. This rug is light and not as dense as the older sheep fleeces, so it perfect for the sofa, bed, baby cot, or bedside rug. I wouldn't suggest it suitable for hevy footfall.
 
  Wool has incredible insulation properties, but also wicks away sweat to keep cool, so is temperature regulating.
 
Because these are hand made and natural felted fleeces they respond differently to the felting process. Each fleece has it's own individual characteristics in texture, sheen, lock length and density. Some fleeces will also shed more than others, which is normal. They will give you many years of use. This rug is pure wool, no leather, and the sheep is still alive. 
 
 
The rugs and felts have an essence of nature about them. They are wild, rugged and yet incredibly soft, warm and durable. They reflect the colours of the Earth in all its diversity and therefore every item is bespoke and individual with no two being the same, focusing on organic and environmentally friendly creation.
