We've been making quite a few bespoke sheepskin rugs for international customers lately so we thought we'd showcase some of our furthest flung fleeces...

Gone to Gozo!

Above is the wonderful holiday home of Fab Fleece Fan Caroline Logsdail, who recently ordered two Rare Breed Octo sheepskins from us to furnish her house on the Mediterranean island of Gozo. Don't the natural tones of the fleece look fabulous combined with that sandstone wall?!

You may be thinking that sheepskins would be too warm for a hot Mediterranean climate like on Gozo... Well although it seems counterintuitive, sheepskin is excellent at cooling us down in summer due to its temperature regulating properties. Read more here about why sheepskin keeps you cool in summer.

Caroline also asked our advice on the best way to store the sheepskins in the low season when the house is not in use. We'd say leave it out wherever possible. However, if you do need to put your sheepskin away into storage, be sure to place it in a large cardboard box with plenty of room to aid good air circulation. Never wrap it in plastic as sheepskin needs to breathe!

More far flung fans

Returning to look at other places our sheepskins have travelled to, we recently sent out a Chocolate Brown Rare Breed Decto sheepskin to the USA to adorn a hunting lodge. We've made several for ski chalets in the Alps and as we speak, we are preparing a bespoke sheepskin for a customer in Gibraltar!

So if you are not based in the UK but would love to own one of our rugs, we have shipping options for many different parts of the world. See our delivery page for more details on international postage. If your country is not listed, contact us for a delivery quote.
