Product Information
Why Choose a Rectangular Sheepskin Rug?
Bring natural warmth, softness and texture into your home with our Rectangular Sheepskin Rugs, expertly crafted from carefully selected New Zealand sheepskins.
Unlike a single natural-shape rug, these larger pieces are created by carefully matching individual pelts for wool colour, length, density and overall appearance. The pelts are then trimmed and expertly joined to create a balanced rectangular shape with a beautifully consistent wool surface.
Available in a range of multi-pelt sizes, they're ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and larger open spaces, whether placed beside a bed, in front of a sofa or used as a luxurious centrepiece within a room.
Our premium sheepskins are New Zealand-grown, with the finished rugs tanned and crafted in New Zealand using a gentle tanning process without harsh chemicals. This helps preserve the natural softness, lustre and character of the wool.
Premium New Zealand Sheepskin
The quality of a large multi-pelt rug depends heavily on how well the individual sheepskins are selected and matched.
Each pelt is carefully chosen for its wool density, softness, length, colour and overall appearance before being positioned within the finished rug. Considerable skill goes into creating a consistent look across multiple natural sheepskins.
The result is a luxuriously soft long-wool surface that showcases the natural beauty and character of genuine sheepskin on a much larger scale.
Because sheepskin is a natural material, no two rugs will ever be exactly alike. Subtle variations in wool length, texture, colour and finished dimensions are part of what makes each rug unique.
Choose from Five Natural Colours
Our rectangular rugs are available in five colours:
Ivory White – A natural creamy-white with subtle cream and ivory undertones rather than a bright artificial white.
Honey – A warm golden shade that pairs beautifully with timber, leather and natural interiors.
Grey – A versatile medium grey suited to contemporary and neutral spaces.
Chocolate – A rich, deep brown that adds warmth and depth to a room.
Black – A bold, sophisticated option for creating striking contrast.
As each rug is made from genuine sheepskin, natural colour variation between individual pelts is expected. When creating a multi-pelt rug, the sheepskins are carefully selected and matched to achieve the most consistent overall appearance possible.
Rectangular Sheepskin Rug Sizes
Our multi-pelt rectangular rugs are available in several configurations to suit different rooms and spaces:
- 4 Pelt: 2 pelts wide × 2 pelts long – approx. 150 × 94 cm (59 × 37 in.)
- 6 Pelt: 2 pelts wide × 3 pelts long – approx. 150 × 140 cm (59 × 55 in.)
- 8 Pelt: 2 pelts wide × 4 pelts long – approx. 150 × 186 cm (59 × 73 in.)
- 10 Pelt: 2 pelts wide × 5 pelts long – approx. 150 × 234 cm (59 × 92 in.)
- 12 Pelt: 2 pelts wide × 6 pelts long – approx. 150 × 279 cm (59 × 110 in.)
- Wide 12 Pelt: 3 pelts wide × 4 pelts long – approx. 222 × 184 cm (87 × 72 in.)
Because every sheepskin has its own natural shape and each rug is individually crafted, finished measurements are approximate and may vary slightly.
Made to Order in New Zealand, Delivered to the UK
Our larger rectangular sheepskin rugs are made to order in New Zealand and delivered directly to customers throughout the UK.
For each rug, individual sheepskins are selected and matched for colour, wool length, density and overall appearance before being expertly joined together. This careful process helps create a balanced, consistent finish across the entire rug.
Please allow approximately 2–3 weeks for your rug to be made before shipping.
Particularly large or custom orders may occasionally require additional time if more closely matched sheepskins need to be sourced.
As each rug is individually made, we recommend carefully checking your required dimensions and preferred colour before placing your order.
Custom & Extra-Large Sheepskin Rugs
Need a different size for your room?
We can create bespoke rectangular sheepskin rugs for UK customers requiring larger or specific dimensions.
Creating a bespoke rug involves sourcing enough closely matched New Zealand sheepskins to achieve a consistent appearance across the finished piece. This becomes particularly important as the size of the rug increases.
Simply contact us with your required dimensions and preferred colour, and we'll be happy to provide a personalised quote.
How to Care for a Large Sheepskin Rug
With the right care, genuine sheepskin can retain its softness, loft and beautiful natural appearance for many years.
Regular Care: Brush the wool periodically with a sheepskin care brush to help lift and separate the fibres and reduce matting. When practical, gently shake the rug or carefully vacuum using a low-suction setting to remove loose dust and debris.
Spot Cleaning: Attend to spills promptly. Blot gently using cold or lukewarm water and a detergent specifically suitable for genuine sheepskin. Avoid vigorous rubbing and try not to unnecessarily soak the leather beneath the wool.
Professional Cleaning: Although genuine sheepskin can be washed, we don't recommend washing larger multi-pelt rugs at home. They become extremely heavy when wet and can be difficult to handle and dry evenly without affecting their shape or finish.
For a thorough clean, we recommend using a professional cleaner experienced with genuine sheepskin or leather-backed wool rugs.
What to Avoid: Do not use hot water, bleach, fabric softeners or conventional detergents containing enzymes. Avoid tumble drying and never dry wet sheepskin directly beside radiators, heaters or other strong heat sources.
Shipping to the UK & What to Expect When Your Rug Arrives
Our rectangular sheepskin rugs are shipped directly from New Zealand to customers throughout the UK.
Large rugs are carefully packed and compressed for international delivery to help protect them while keeping the parcel as compact as practical during transit.
When you first unpack your rug, the wool may appear slightly flattened or compressed. This is completely normal.
Lay the rug flat, give it a gentle shake and brush through the wool with a sheepskin care brush. This will help separate and lift the fibres, while the wool will continue to relax and regain its natural loft after unpacking.
For larger made-to-order rugs, please allow approximately 2–3 weeks for production before shipping. Once your rug has been completed and dispatched, tracking details will be emailed to you so you can follow its journey from New Zealand to the UK.
Natural New Zealand Craftsmanship for Your Home
