REINDEER HIDES
These rugs can be used as wall decorations and floor coverings either inside or outside the home. Each skin is unique with luxurious markings and super soft fur. Reindeer herders originate from the Sami people, nomadic tribes travelling the fells of Sweden, Norway and spreading to Finland in rhythm with the seasons. The Reindeer provide meat, milk and raw materials for clothes and tools. Reindeer is still important today to the Sami people’s culture and very existence.
