Kaikoura Long Wool Single NZ Sheepskin Rug - Thyme

Kaikoura Long Wool Single NZ Sheepskin Rug - Thyme | Online8 New Zealand

This is the Kaikoura long wool sheepskin rug in Thyme, a genuine New Zealand sheepskin measuring 600 x 900mm. Thyme is the one colour in the range that is not a plain neutral: a muted, herbal green that brings a little of the outdoors inside without shouting about it. It works on the floor beside a bed, over a chair, or as a soft layer in a reading nook or study.

Why It Stands Apart

• Genuine NZ sheepskin: A real New Zealand hide with the wool intact, which is why it feels dense and soft rather than thin and papery.
• A colour with character: Thyme green gives a room something to look at where another beige or grey piece would simply disappear.
• Long wool pile: The longer wool gives the surface real depth, catching light differently as you move around it.
• Pairs with natural materials: Green sits comfortably alongside timber, rattan, plants and unbleached linen, so it suits a room already leaning natural.
• Single-hide footprint: At 600 x 900mm it adds warmth and colour to one spot without committing the whole floor to green.
• Move it as you like: Floor, chair, bench or bed end, it works in any of them and takes seconds to reposition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the wool real sheepskin?
Yes. The composition is NZ Sheepskin, so this is a genuine New Zealand sheepskin rather than a synthetic pile.

Will a green sheepskin work in my room?
Thyme is muted rather than bright, so it behaves more like a soft neutral than a strong accent. It tends to look best against timber, cream or white, and in rooms that already have some greenery or natural texture.

Is it big enough for a chair or bedside?
At 600 x 900mm it will sit across most armchair seats, drape over a chair back, or work as a bedside rug on one side of the bed. If you want it to run the length of a bed or sofa, the Double is 600 x 1800mm, two hides joined.

How should I care for it?
Shake it out regularly, and brush the wool with a sheepskin or wire brush to keep the pile lifted. Spot clean small marks rather than wetting the whole skin, and keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight so the green stays true. If you are unsure how to treat something, ring the showroom before you start.
