Sheep Skin Rugs



By right, sheep skin rugs are estimated much higher than other ones. Of course it is reflected in their price. With the development of machinery newly invented synthetic fabrics have somewhat pressed skin rugs. But nevertheless skin rugs hold their position still as the rugs of ultimate quality.

Far from every wool would fit for weaving a good rug from. One of the best kinds of wool is called “gazni”. It is sheared off from the chest of a half year Afghan lamb. Except Afghan or Iranian wool, the wool from New Zealand is now getting more and more widespread. Skin rugs weaved from this wool are ecologically clean, thin, durable, white and very soft by touch.

It is very important to feed lambs well, because the durability of sheep skin rugs depends on a lamb’s nutrition. Right cleaned skin rugs don’t smell, they don’t become colourless and they stay soft and comfortable for a long time.

paymentgateway Good sheep skin rugs are supplied by such countries as Iran, India and Turkey.
