FAQ
- Why is the color off on my rug? It looks a little different from what I saw in the photo online.
In a perfect world, every animal would be exactly identical. This isn’t the case as every animal is different – some cows have longer fur, shorter fur, darker fur, lighter fur etc.
Please be aware that all of our cowhides are 100% genuine animal skins that are byproducts of nature and the environment. This means you can expect some of them to have occasional marks, fire brands and scrapes. These natural blemishes are completely normal – they are NOT defects. Instead, they are simple scars that are unique to each animal, adding a layer of authenticity to each rug.
If you’d like to see a photo of a specific cowhide rug before you place an order, simply let us know and we’ll send you a picture of the exact one we have in our warehouse. This way there won’t be any surprises.
