This Gotland is massive and heavy, its very soft and very fat and gorgeous. Nat's has brushed most of the newest shipment of Gotlands, so they will appear more fuzzy but rest assured the feeling of this sheepskin is heavenly.
Finding dreadlocks of wool in Gotland sheepskins is very normal as their wool is very fine and silky.
Our sheepskins are priced on a scale, reflecting variations in size, texture, and overall appeal.
Gotland sheep, whose lineage dates back to the formidable Viking era, have undergone centuries of careful refinement. This meticulous breeding has resulted in what many now consider to be the most desirable sheepskins in the world. Originally from Sweden, these robust sheep spend most of their lives in open fields, where they are constantly brushed by the cool winds blowing in from the Baltic Sea. Just like all our other sheepskins, Gotland sheepskins are a responsible byproduct of the meat industry, ensuring no part of the animal goes to waste.
Most often, these striking sheepskins Gotland are used as luxurious pieces for the home, adding an exotic feel and unique texture to any space. The feel can range from super silky soft to more subtly coarse, and the wool length can vary from long and flowing to beautifully short. Each Angus Oliver sheepskin offers a distinct sensory experience.
It's worth noting that these exquisite Gotland sheepskins might occasionally have a few natural mats in the wool. This is a common characteristic, as the silkier the pelt, the more prone it can be to gentle felting. We see this as an inherent part of the charm and natural beauty of enjoying genuine Gotland sheepskins.
If you decide to brush these sheepskins, they will indeed become very frizzy, though incredibly soft. For maintaining their natural allure, they are best not brushed.
