Imported from Hungary, our Tsigai sheepskins are of excellent quality. Also known as Cigája (pronounced Cig-Ah-Ya), Zombori sheep, Oláh sheep, or berke, these sheepskins are quite soft with long, dense hair and a supple hide. Our Natural color sheepskins have a yellow tint to them, making them look almost golden.
Sizes may vary. They average between 34" to 50" long and 18" to 31" wide, with an average hair length of 6" to 10" long.
These sheepskins make for ideal seating pads, floor mats or blankets. They can also be used to make hats, vests, mocassins, bags and other fur items. They also work well as luxurious furniture covers.
Tsigai sheepskins are not endangered. The sheepskins are a by-product of the food industry. The sheep were not killed just for their skin.
