Icelandic Sheep are a heritage breed that has, like most creatures in Iceland, evolved in relative isolation since Viking times, the hearty Icelandic sheep are well-suited to withstand the country’s harsh weather conditions, as well as being notably headstrong and stubborn when it wants to be, which is often. Sheep in Iceland spend the spring and summer roaming the country’s lush hills and valleys unfettered, the better to sniff out all of the delicious fresh herbs and grasses that give Icelandic lamb its unique flavor , but come fall, each and every one of these vagabond critters must be sought out, herded together, sorted among local farms, and brought in for the winter. The annual sheep round-up, or réttir, starts in September and can run through early October.

Sheepskin Coloring

Depending on the lighting and colors in your home, the sheepskin may have different color tones more prominent than others seen on our website.

• Natural sheepskins can have a mixture of tones such as cream, white, gray, tan, black and brown. It’s possible that a natural sheepskin can display all the colors in a single hide or show a combination of some of those colors. No two natural sheepskins will be alike.

• A natural white sheepskin will NEVER be solid white. Natural white sheepskins can vary from a cream, ivory and often with lanolin which makes the sheep’s wool appear slightly yellow or beige. When placed near other warm tones, people rarely notice the color of lanolin.

• A natural black sheepskin can be anywhere from very black, a deep brown black with reddish highlights due to sun exposure and sometimes have gray hairs.

• A natural brown sheepskin can display a variety of shades from very light brown, golden brown, reddish brown to a dark chocolate brown. Sometimes a brown sheepskin can have all of those colors present in a single hide.

• Natural gray sheepskins are stunning, rare and present with a variety of colors. Browns, blacks, creams, lanolin (beige) & different degrees of gray can be present.

Eco-Tanning

Our pelts are expertly tanned using time-honored plant-based agents perfected over generations in Europe, ensuring a superior product. Each sheepskin adheres to stringent European regulations, guaranteeing that all tanning agents are biodegradable and environmentally friendly—standards that surpass U.S. safety regulations. The hides undergo a meticulous process: washed in tannin-rich water and fortified with bio-based lactic acid to preserve the wool, followed by stabilization of the leather’s collagen with vegetable extract-based tannins.
