*NOTE ON PELT ORIGINS*

In the spirit of mindfulness and conscientious consumption, these small family farmed pelts offer an opportunity to choose an alternative to the modern experience of mass production by taking advantage of a simple traditional byproduct.

As with all of our animal-based products, these skins are a bi-product of local meat providers. Farmed for their milk and meat, their hides are a bi-product used for clothing and to keep warm in the winter.

The Benefits of Reindeer Hide:
- Incredible at regulating body heat.
- Helps to relieve aches and pains.
- Resistant to dirt and bacteria.
- hypo-allergenic (and help soothe skin rashes like eczema and more).
- Adds warmth and texture to your home.

Care: simply shake your hide out once or twice a month to remove dust.

Shake and/or vacuum occasionally to remove dust and debris. In the event of a spill or stain, mix wool-specific detergent with warm water to produce foam. Using foam only (do not soak or submerge skin in water), work the foam over the affected area and pat dry with a clean cloth. Shake and leave to dry, finish with a combing. Alternately, item can be dry cleaned.
