Authentic Icelandic Felted Fleece Rug

Discover the warmth and rustic charm of our handcrafted Icelandic felted fleece rug. Each rug is meticulously made using traditional wet felting techniques, ensuring a unique piece that adds a touch of natural elegance to any home.

About the Icelandic Breed: The Icelandic sheep, a breed with a rich history dating back over 1,000 years, was brought to Iceland by the Vikings. These hardy sheep are renowned for their dual-coated fleece, which provides superior warmth and durability. The breed's long and soft outer coat, coupled with a dense and insulating undercoat, makes their wool highly sought after for its quality and versatility. Icelandic sheep have adapted to the harsh climates of their native land, resulting in fleece that is resilient.

Crafting Your Rug: Our felted fleece rugs are created using the ancient art of wet felting, a process that transforms raw wool into a cohesive and durable fabric. Here’s how we do it:

  1. Selection of Fleece: We begin by selecting the finest fleeces from Icelandic sheep, ensuring each rug is made from premium wool.
  2. Preparation: The fleece is carefully cleaned and prepared, preserving the natural structure of the wool.
  3. Layering: Layers of wool are spread out and artistically arranged to enhance the natural beauty and texture of the fleece.
  4. Wet Felting: The fleece is soaked in hot, soapy water and then gently agitated. This process causes the wool fibers to interlock, forming a strong and cohesive material.
  5. Fulling: The rug is further worked and shaped to achieve the desired thickness and durability, ensuring it can withstand everyday use.
  6. Finishing Touches: Once fully felted, the rug is washed several times and rinsed, stretched, and dried, ready to add a touch of Icelandic tradition to your home.

Why Choose Our Rugs?

  • Sustainable and Eco-Friendly: Made from 100% natural wool, our rugs are biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
  • Handcrafted Quality: Each rug is individually handmade, reflecting the craftsmanship and care put into every piece.
  • Unique and Versatile: No two rugs are alike, offering a unique piece that complements any décor, from rustic cabins to modern living spaces.
