Despite this, rest assured the sensory experience of these Gotland sheepskins remains absolutely heavenly.
It's quite normal to discover small dreadlocks of wool within Gotland sheepskins. This natural characteristic is due to their exceptionally fine and silky wool fibers.
Our sheepskins are priced on a tiered system that thoughtfully accounts for variations in size, unique texture, and overall appeal, ensuring fair value for each distinct piece.
Gotland sheep, boasting a distinguished lineage stretching back to the formidable Viking era, have undergone centuries of careful and selective refinement. This meticulous breeding has culminated in what many experts now consider to be the most desirable sheepskins globally. Originating from the rugged landscapes of Sweden, these robust sheep spend the majority of their lives roaming open fields, where their wool is constantly caressed by the cool, invigorating winds blowing in from the Baltic Sea. Like all our other premium Oliver luxury sheepskins, Gotland sheepskins are a responsible byproduct of the meat industry, upholding our commitment to ensuring no part of the animal goes to waste.
Most often, these striking Gotland sheepskin pieces are cherished as luxurious accents for the home, effortlessly injecting an exotic feel and unique texture into any living space. The tactile experience can vary from a super silky-soft embrace to a more subtly coarse, earthy feel, while the wool length ranges from beautifully long and flowing to elegantly short. Each Angus Oliver sheepskin truly delivers a distinct and captivating sensory experience.
It’s worth noting that these exquisite Gotland sheepskins might occasionally feature a few natural mats or gentle felting in the wool. This is a common and even celebrated characteristic, as the silkier the pelt, the more naturally prone it can be to this charming attribute. We view this as an inherent part of the authentic allure and natural beauty of genuine Gotland sheepskins.
If you decide to brush these sheepskins, they will indeed become quite frizzy, though they will remain incredibly soft to the touch. For preserving their natural elegance and unique texture, they are generally best left unbrushed.
