Design Tips

Expert Advice

Which cowskin is best for my room?

Choose your cowskin based on the mood you want to create. Black & White Cowskin Rugs feel bold and contemporary, Brown & White Cowskins add warmth, while Grey Cowskins suit softer modern interiors.

What size cowskin rug should I choose?

For smaller spaces, choose Small Cowskins or Medium Cowskins. For living rooms, open-plan areas, or under coffee tables, Large Cowskins and Extra Large Cowskins usually create the strongest visual impact.

Are cowskins suitable for modern homes?

Yes. Cowskins work beautifully in modern interiors because they add natural texture, organic shape, and visual contrast without making the room feel cluttered.

What is the difference between cowskin and cowhide?

The terms are often used interchangeably. Cowskin is a natural hide with the hair left on, while cowhide rug is the more commonly searched term in the USA.

Which cowskin colours are easiest to style?

Neutral tones such as Brown Cowskins, Grey Cowskins, Plain Cowskins, and Black Cowskins are especially easy to style because they work with a wide range of interiors.

Are patterned cowskins too bold?

Not necessarily. Speckled Cowskins, Brindled Cowskins, and Accented Cowskins can add subtle detail, while Exotic Pattern Cowskins & Animal Print Cowskins, and Printed Cowskin Rugs create more of a statement.

Can I use a cowskin rug on carpet?

Yes. A cowskin can be layered over carpet to add texture and definition, especially in bedrooms, dressing rooms, and relaxed living spaces. Adding a cowhide over a Natural Sisal Rug, Wool Rug or pairing with Sheepskins can be a great look!

Are cowskin rugs easy to care for?

Yes. Regular shaking, gentle vacuuming, and prompt spot cleaning are usually enough.

Check out our dedicated Rug Care guide with lots of useful for customers who want advice on how to get the most long-term life from their rugs.

Are calf skins different from cowskins?

Yes. Calf Skins are usually smaller, softer, and more delicate in appearance. They work well as decorative accents, chair throws, or smaller floor pieces.

Why buy an individually photographed cowskin?

Every cowskin is unique. Individual photography means the customer can choose the exact colour, markings, size, and pattern they will receive.
