Description

VIKING WOOL WORKS COLLECTION
This collection comes from a sister farm, some of our original flock came from this farm.  Their lambs are sustainably raised similarly to ours. They use a different tannery, so the leather is a cooler greyish white (as opposed to cream colored) and whites are a cooler white-white (again rather than cream). The locks are not brushed out so they retain more of their curl.  These pelts can be spot cleaned, but are not fully washable.  However they are on the larger side and extra plush.
NOTES FOR ALL PELTS
Softness Every pelt is next-to-skin soft, no itchies, but textures vary from fluffy cloud to lustrous to silky
Measurements  Width is taken at the widest part of the belly, length is total length from neck to tips of back legs. To get a sense of size, fold a towel to the dimensions. “Standard” is mid-range size that most come out.  Anything different is noted.
Length of wool (called staple) is the length when stretched out.  Generally the shorter fibers are in the center, the longer fibers around the edges.
Price is determined by size, quality and desirability of the pelt, as well as the time and energy that goes into breeding, raising lambs, salting , drying and shipping pelts and the cost to produce them.  We cannot compete with commercial skins which come out of the international meat industry and are bulk shipped to China for processing.  You are not just buying a product, you are supporting sustainable farming methods and tireless hand work.  Thank you.
