About Bowron Sheepskin
Every Bowron sheepskin is the perfect result of the same methods pioneered in the 1880's by the Bowron brothers of New Zealand. Their unique 42 step tanning method has been constantly refined, and the quality of Bowron's sheepskins owes much to their location: the vast sheep stations of Australia's outback, and the lush green pastoral farms of New Zealand. Bowron's tanneries in New Zealand and Australia are placed in prime sheep farming areas, ensuring a plentiful source of high quality raw material. Trained suppliers select only materials that meet the needs of Bowron's customers to define the symbol of excellence attributed to the world's finest sheepskin.

In 1879 brothers, George and William Bowron, set sail for New Zealand to fulfill their personal dream of starting their own tannery. The tannery opened in 1881 where their family tradition of excellence in lambskin tanning immediately flourished.
To this day, every Bowron sheepskin is the perfect result of the same methods pioneered in the 1880's by the Bowron brothers from Yorkshire. Their unique 42 step tanning method has been constantly refined and now sits at the heart of the Bowron Sheepskin story. A story of unparalleled access to the finest raw materials available, cutting edge process innovation, environmental leadership, unrivalled manufacturing capacity, strong customer relationships, and a global distribution network that delivers the finest sheepskins to the very heart of world markets.
They select raw material from throughout the world, but believe the quality of their sheepskins owes much to their location in the midst of the world's finest flocks of lambs: the vast sheep stations of Australia's outback, and the high country runs and lush green pastoral farms of New Zealand.
Bowron's tanneries in New Zealand and Australia are placed in prime sheep farming areas, ensuring a plentiful source of high quality raw material and the best relationships with their suppliers. Their people are constantly in the plants where raw material is selected, training suppliers to select only materials that meet the needs of their customers.
Blending the skills of the craftsperson with the latest automated manufacturing techniques, their research and development team enable the finest quality sheepskins to be produced on a global scale.
They have selected and trained their own people from Europe, North America, Asia and Australia to ensure that the needs of their customers can be dealt with as quickly and directly as possible. Their approach has been to take their knowledge and products directly to the world, rather than waiting for the world to find them in New Zealand.
This is the Bowron story: a story over 100 years in the making. Their commitment to quality has continued, and the team at Bowron continue to make the name "Bowron" synonymous with the world's finest sheepskin products. More on Bowron Sheepskin Rugs...

Comments about Bowron Sheepskin Rugs Contemporary Champagne Gold Star Sheepskin Rug:
Bought the first one for my husband for his family room recliner - looks far better over the leather than an oversized towel. Because it has worked out so well for him and our two cats, purchased another for his reading recliner in the living room. All season use - even in summer far more comfortable than leather!

Comments about Bowron Sheepskin Rugs Contemporary Champagne Gold Star Sheepskin Rug:
The champagne color is really cream or off-white. There is a pink hue to nap. The stitching is not secure on ends where the pelts meet. The natural inconsistencies in pelts (hair length and texture) are interesting, but definitely apparent. Like overall look and feel of product, but slightly disappointed in craftsmanship.
Service and delivery comments:
Product arrived in good condition. I was surprised on how the rug was packaged (simply bundled up and put in box with no proptective wrap). Seems a bit too pricey for such presentation.
