Natural Torddu Sheepskin
These luxurious Welsh Torddu sheepskin rugs have a long bright white fleece, strikingly outlined with contrasting natural black and dark brown edges. Each rug is unique in size, pattern, fleece length and colour. The roots of the fleece are black, so there is a lovely dark undertone when you run your hand over the fleece. Wider than many sheepskins, they are trimmed economically to preserve the beautiful contrast along the edges. These are a fabulous find, and we think you will love them just as much as we do.
The Torddu is one of two breeds of Badger Face Welsh mountain sheep and is believed to be one of the oldest breeds of British sheep, dating back around 2,000 years to the first century. They are extremely hardy, living high in the otherwise unfarmable Welsh hills and are known for their resilience and strong mothering instincts. They are generally white with a black underbelly and have a black-and-white striped face.
- Size: Approx. 83-102 cm long x 62-79 cm wide
- Composition: 100% Welsh Torddu sheepskin
- Origin: Tanned and finished in the UK
Product Care
To clean, take it outside and give it a good shake and a brush with our bamboo sheepskin brush. Brush regularly to help maintain and bring out the best in the wool fibres.
Spot cleaning is recommended but can be carefully machine washed if needed at up to 30°C on a wool program using wool-recommended detergent.
Allow to dry naturally.

Origin & Sustainability

Our gorgeous rugs are made to withstand the test of time and trends, ensuring that they remain a staple décor piece for years to come.
