Questions about the product Fluffy Northern Sheepskin Brown (115 cm)

How long is the wool fleece of the brown Northland sheepskin and can the product be washed?

The wool fleece of the Nordland sheepskin is approximately 12 to 20 cm long. The fleece should not be washed, as the leather can become hard and brittle during the washing process; instead, regular shaking, airing, and brushing are recommended for care.
What special properties does the fleece of the Northland sheep have compared to a wool sheep/lamb fleece?

The fleece of the Northland sheep is characterized by its robustness and adaptation to Nordic weather conditions, resulting in a particularly long, dense, and soft fleece. Unlike a classic wool sheep or lambskin, which is often valued for its medicinal or warming properties when used continuously, the Northland sheep fleece serves primarily decorative purposes. Since it can become flattened over time with intensive use as a seat cushion, its appeal lies above all in its spectacular, fluffy appearance and natural resilience.
Is the fur of the Northland sheep suitable for use as a warming mat in a baby carriage or stroller due to its properties?

The fleece of the Northland sheep is less suitable for use as a warm lining in a baby carrier or stroller. Due to its hair length of approximately 15 cm and the long wool fleece, there is a potential suffocation risk for infants, which is why experts recommend shorter fleeces (approximately 30 mm) for babies. Furthermore, this particular fleece is more sensitive to heavy wear and tear and, due to the tanning process, cannot be washed, which is impractical in a baby setting.
From which traditional company do the Northland sheep pelts originate, and what recommendations are there for the daily care of the delicate fleece?

The Northland sheepskins come from Heitmann Felle, a traditional company from the Lüneburg Heath that has been in business since 1820. To care for them, occasional shaking in the fresh air and gentle brushing are sufficient; however, due to the tanning process, the fur must not be washed or come into contact with moisture.
