The rug is made from 100% natural cowhide leather, natural grey shades (light, dark and brownish) hides taken from different cows/ox hides, then cut into hexagonal shape and hand-stitched to make a perfect match for your trendy decor. At the back there is acrylic felt backing, which makes the rug lay flat, grip to the floor and protects it from any underneath floor moisture. Securely rolled packed on a cardboard pole this protects it while in transit and makes it lay flat once unpacked.
