The Icelandic sheepskin by Sibast brings your home delicate warmth and quality of the Icelandic sheep’s wool. As a result of the cold and harsh climate of Iceland, native Icelandic sheep have developed a special wool consisting of two types of fibres: the outer fibres are long and water-repellent, while the shorter inner fibres are particularly soft, fine and insulating. Coloured in lighter and darker shades of natural wool, the Icelandic sheepskin can be used for example on the floor, bed or armchair, and it goes perfectly together with the wooden lounge chairs by Sibast.
