GL Bowron sheepskin rugs

Update: We have replaced our natural pelt rugs with ones from our local New Zealand tannery, Classic Sheepskins. These offer excellent quality, consistency and value. We continue to stock Bowron Baby Care products, the FleeceEase medical rug and GL Bowron comforters and underlays.
 
Our sheepskin rugs are manufactured in New Zealand by G L Bowron & Co who are the largest sheep skin tannery company in the world. See Bowron history. They are known worldwide for producing the world's finest sheepskin products. The terms sheepskins and lambskin or lamb skin are used inter-changeably.

The raw sheep skins are sourced from New Zealand and Australia. The breeds of sheep of the two countries varies, in New Zealand they are bred mainly for lamb meat which is one of New Zealand's largest exports and in Australian mainly for wool as well as meat. For both sources the hides are a by-product of their primary use.

Bowron range

Bowron sheepskin rugs have been specially tanned, using a bleach-free process, to preserve the beauty of their natural colour. Bowron select only the finest lambskins from the famous Romney and Merino breeds

Bowron grade their main ranges of lambskin rugs as Bronze, Silver or Gold Star. We only offer the premium grade, Gold Star, for our natural shaped singles and multiples. Only those skins with the softest, most lustrous wool finish and defect free pelts achieve the Bowron Gold Star grading. The multiples use a number of lamb skins which have been expertly matched and sewn together.

We keep all Gold Star rugs in stock so we can provide a dispatch time of just one working day.
 
Although you will find our prices to be the lowest around with Air Mail (or NZ Courier) delivery included, for those on a particular tight budget or for use as a pet rug, we have the Bowron Country Living Autumn range in natural Ivory. Available in two sizes, large and small, they are both smaller than the Gold Star single and their wool length and exact shape may differ.
