Testimonials
“They are GORGEOUS. The best we’ve ever had. I can truly see how it’s a partnership between the tannery and farmer. All the years of hard work we’ve done to get the color, size, texture, and shape (mostly burr free) and your work makes all of that truly beautiful and a high end product we can be really proud to share. Thank you. The skill in your craft is so appreciated. ”
“”My second purchase from you was a pillow that I don’t go without while backpacking. It brings me sweet dreams on the trail!””
“Just wanted to drop a quick note to thank you for the sheep hide. My partner got me one for Christmas (after I dropped hints for a month and directly sent him a link) and it is just magic. I feel like it’s way cozier than any other hide I’ve ever sat on? And like my rumpus is always getting a hug?”
“They are even lovelier than I anticipated. Your process does not scour all of the softness out of the fleeces and I think it enhances the color and the variations in wool texture.”
