I love ewe.
We love these fluffy, natural Icelandic sheepskins draped over a dining room chair or small bench as much as we do thrown over the couch, or even on the floor for a makeshift rug (and eternally toasty toes). And now, for a limited time, they’re coming in a spread of stylish new hues.
Each shaggy snuggler comes from a small farm in Iceland that’s been harvesting wool for decades, where the sheep are raised humanely, have a high quality of life, and graze freely. This particular breed of sheep has been roaming Iceland since 897, when the Vikings first came to the island (psst...that year is stamped on the back of each sheepskin). All the skins are processed in an eco-friendly way, using only geothermal power produced by the Earth’s internal heat. Now, go ahead and prepare for all the warm fuzzies.
