During our curation process, we do our best to select the “cleanest” hair-on-hide skins for you, but some of the mentioned marks might be present. For us, these are the natural beauty of a cowhide, this makes them unique, as no other cow skin will look exactly as another one.
The tanning process of a cow hide rug is made with a mix of chemical and vegetable agents so, initially, a hair-on-hide might have a slight odor. After a couple of weeks, this odor will be similar to how leather smells and after a couple of months in your house, it will be almost odorless.
Cow hides are hypoallergenic, yes, due to its natural origin, they will not cause allergies (or make them worse), regardless, it is good to keep them clean by regular vacuuming and, although they are also stain resistant, wipe it with a damp cloth if needed be.
