Chesham Brown British Sheepskin Rug

This large rustic sheepskin rug is predominantly dark brown in colour, featuring subtle grey and lighter brown highlights.

The colouring of 'all-brown' rugs like this can be quite deceptive when viewed in photos rather than in person, particularly in outdoor lighting where the fleece is highlighted making it look much lighter in places and a very varied colour. Under indoor lighting this rug looks a fairly constant very dark reddy brown colour all over, with some very subtle highlights on the tips of of the fleece.

The fleece feels soft and slightly frizzy on the surface, but underneath the wool is extremely matted and difficult to run your hands through. 

The wool is lovely and thick with a slightly shorter haired patch in the centre of the rug - this is the spine of the sheep that would have had the rain on it all year and so got flattened down. This is likely from a big old ram that's been in the fields many years.

Like all our rugs, it has been tanned in the UK and hand finished in our Yorkshire Dales warehouse.

Most Glencroft sheepskins go to specialist independent retailers across the country. We pick a few out each week for sale online, once they're gone they're gone!
