Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes do designer rectangle sheepskin rugs come in?
Rectangle rugs range from smaller accent sizes through to larger area rugs sized to fit Single, Double, Queen, King and Super King beds, plus furniture and floor placements. Each product page lists the exact dimensions. The neat geometric shape works well under coffee tables, at the foot of a bed or as a throw across an armchair.
Who makes your designer sheepskin rugs?
Our rectangle rugs are tanned and handcrafted by Classic Sheepskins of Napier, in New Zealand's Hawke's Bay. They use only natural processes, free from harsh chemicals, which is why the finished wool feels soft and skin-safe rather than chemically stiff.
What's the difference between natural shape rugs and rectangle (designer) rugs?
Natural shape rugs keep the original outline of the pelt, so a single-pelt rug is shaped like the sheepskin itself, and multi-pelt rugs (double, quad, octuple) have the curved, organic silhouette of joined pelts. Rectangle designer rugs are cut and pieced into tidy geometric shapes, cleaner lines for under furniture or on beds, while still being made from genuine sheepskin pelts.
How do I clean a rectangle designer sheepskin rug?
Same care as a natural shape rug. Hand or machine wash smaller rugs in warm water (max 40C) using Woolskin Wool Wash, no enzymes, no bleach. Spin out excess water, then dry flat over several lines and gently reshape while damp. Brush the wool when damp and again when dry. For larger rectangle rugs spot clean with diluted shampoo and a damp cloth.
Will the rug shed and is some loose fibre normal?
A small amount of loose fibre is normal in the first few weeks, it's leftover from the tanning and finishing process. A vigorous shake and a brush with a wool brush sees most of it off quickly. After that, shedding settles right down. White rugs can also yellow slightly with age and direct sunlight, which is natural and irreversible.

The Art of Handcrafted Sheepskin Rugs

Our New Zealand sheepskin rugs are created from premium-grade long wool hides, carefully matched for colour and texture to achieve a flawless, natural finish. The deep, silky fibres offer incredible softness underfoot, bringing instant warmth and character to any room. For a contemporary look, our shorn shearling rugs feature a shorter, velvety wool pile with a smooth, modern feel.
