GOLDEN FLEECE
25mm Ironed Wool skins

Finding sheepskins which have the quality required for Lambswool Overugs is no easy task
We search the world for the best and then we select the finest from these for our Golden Fleece Sheepskins

Selected for their dense but soft wool character each sheepskin goes through up to forty processes during its journey through the tannery
In certain countries ( like USA ) this type of sheepskin is known as Mouton or Mouton Royale

Size is important !
We are cutting large panels for our rugs and have to search the world for particular breeds which give size without loss of wool quality

Golden Fleece are polished or ironed wool skins
In its natural state the wool fibre when viewed under a microscope would resemble a fir tree
Ironing is a process which involves passing the tanned sheepskin under a high speed revolving heated drum
The highly polished surface of the drum has carding panels ( like metal combs ) inset at various points
The combination of heat, pressure and combing strips the barbs off the fibre and making it soft to touch and giving the fibre lustre

Can be dry-cleaned or washed
( hand or machine wash max 30° using non bio soap powder. Natural dry - do not tumble )
