Four curly short-wool Merino sheepskins sewn into a single rug, roughly 67 x 43 in. This is the size to reach for when one skin looks lost in the room. It covers the floor in front of a sofa, works as a soft island under a coffee table, or fills the space beside a bed. Short curly wool wears better underfoot than long wool, because the pile springs back instead of matting along the paths people walk. Each of the four skins came from a different animal, so expect small shifts in tone and curl across the rug. On the natural ivory it is barely noticeable. On the dyed shades you may catch it in daylight. A note on grade: we specialize in seconds, also called B-grade skins. That grade is about appearance, not quality. A skin might have a slightly irregular shape, or a little variation in color or fleece across it, and that is enough to keep it out of the very top premium grade, which is judged on strict looks. The wool is just as soft and the hide is just as strong. It wears and lasts exactly like a top-grade skin, and the small cosmetic mark is the only reason the price is lower. Note: Dyed colors can fade in UV light. The ivory color is the natural color of the sheepskin. Show more
