We have long wool, curly wool, and shorn Icelandic sheepskins.  Each skin is pictured below.  These are all-natural colored sheepskins. With a wool length of approximately 6” to 8”, the long and curly sheepskins make ideal rugs and furniture coverings.  The hair is so long that it does not go in one direction like a dog or cat's fur, but rather it falls in every direction.  This is not a hollow hair, so it doesn't break or shed. The shorn sheepskins have hair that is 0.75" to 1" long.

The white skins are "creamy white."  The natural color of the skins often has a yellowish hue to the color.  As the skins have not been bleached, they often have varying degrees of "cream." 

Not all of the skins we have in stock are shown below. For a complete listing of all Icelandic sheepskin sizes and styles, click HERE to return to the main Icelandic Sheepskin page or click HERE for all Icelandic products.

Genus and species: Ovis aries. Ranch.

Icelandic sheepskins are not endangered. The skins are a by-product of the food industry.  The animals were not killed just for their skins.
