The longer 'guard' hair protects the goat from the elements and the under wool keeps it warm. This under wool is also spun and woven into the world famous `Cashmere` wool used in making fine woollen garments.
The hair is used for textiles & carpets, and other by-products form the staple diet in rural communities where these goats are farmed. It is chemically processed and occasionally slight shedding may occur - this is harmless
and will not deteriorate or affect the goatskin rug. Goatskin rugs are very popular and sold worldwide.

Goatskin Rugs-Maintenance:

The Goatskin Rug is for light use only. Keep away from open fires and strong heat and do not wash. Brush frequently with a stiff wire brush and shake out daily.
Dry clean as recommended when required OR apply a little 'white spirit', brushing the pile vigorously and leave to dry naturally.
