Point of View Farm Washable Finnsheep Sheepskin from our Hudson Valley Farm and tanned locally.
100% Natural USA Finnsheep Premium Sheepskin with soft wool. Natural Color brown known as Ruskea in Finland and sometimes called Morritt here in the USA. No Dyes are used. Each is a one of a kind unique heirloom item.
This sheepskin measures 45 inches x 26 inches with an average wool length of about 4 inches. The lower edges of this one are super fringy with longer wool up to 7″. We measure our sheepskin length from the top center to the lower left corner. The width is the largest area from side to side across the middle of the sheepskin.
This particular sheepskin has a reddish brown color to it which is quite unusual in our flock. It has the classic blond tips for extra depth. This one kinda begs you to touch it and feel the soft fluffy wool locks. You are really going to love this one. It was an eye catcher when we picked them up from the tannery.
Please see the gallery photo of the leather side. There is a sewn patch there I want you to see on the lower part. I found a very close color matched piece of sheepskin and stitched it in place using a furriers technique. It is just as strong as the rest of the sheepskin. For most applications that will not be noticed but if you want to use this leather side up or to make garments, slippers or other crafts…then it might.
Washable, care instructions are included. They are tanned using a specific process so that washing is possible. The soft leather underside is cream colored. If you prefer to have us handle any washing, we can arrange that as well.
Wool is naturally hypo-allergenic, biodegradable and repels dirt and odors as well as being fire retardant. These are all bonuses to the fact that people like you and I just enjoy cuddling up with these. Children enjoy sitting and playing on them. We have had customers sleep on them for extra warmth and cushioning too. Our customers have told us they use our sheepskins for rugs, on their beds or chairs, draped over furniture, car seats, pet beds, motorcycle seat warmers, horse saddle pads and MORE! We can assist you with finding pairs or sets that are similar in size and color if you want to decorate a room with matching or coordinating sheepskins.
