OAK - WILD LEATHER SHEEPSKIN

Wild Crafted by me, Raised by Nature.
 
OAK is a stunning, unique, Icelandic X Shetland hide, naturally tanned, using bark tan methods, organically reared and hand made leather sheepskin. 
 
The hide is 135 x 90 cm.
Honouring the life of the sheep and the ancient art of hide tanning by bringing back the spirit of the animal through this endangered craft. 
 
The colours of the wool are a beautifull variation of silver and grey and brown/black wool that's dense, super thick and soft with long length wool. The wool isn't as soft as other hides, and there is one small area of thinner wool which isn't noticeable at all. Reflected in the price. If this was perfect it would have been £100 more!

This sheepskin would make the perfect fireside rug, within a yurt, tipi or shepherds hut. Also draped over the sofa, or perhaps by the bedside. I also have customers who use these for wild camping as they are so much warmer than synthetic and very light to carry. They have also been used for horse saddle mats and cool motorbike seat covers!
 
*Note: This is a traceable hide, ethically reared and not mass produced. It has been carefully cured, tanned, stretched and oiled by my own hands using traditional, ancient methods and no chemicals or machines. The sheepskin will also have a more tangible, aged and rustic look and feel to it as this is not a commercially produced product. This is a rare and disappearing craft that I hope finds it’s way into your home!
