Though a quality black and white cowhide rug can look really great, little do people understand the versatility and flexibility of these carpets that are becoming a very popular interior decorating item? So other than the aesthetic appeal, what other benefit can they bring? Let’s look at what the experts have to say.
Usefulness
Buckskin or leather made out of it has been in use for many years to create fabric for cowboy trousers, cushions and even vehicle seating. The various colours that are available and the textures have truly made them a popular choice for many interior decorating projects as well.
This versatile material is made from the longhorn cattle. They are a particular breed that has been popularly raised for meat in the United States particularly in the western part. They are characteristic of their extra long horns and vivid colours and patterns on their skin, which make them a popular choice for carpet making as well. The individual patterns on their bodies make the buckskin rugs very unique as no two pieces will be the same.
Colours
These buckskin hides come in variety of colours, such as black, brown, gray and even a mix of a few colours. Therefore the variety they can offer is also very surprising and makes them a popular choice to satisfy many customers and their decorative requirements.
Serves more than decorative purposes
These modern round rugs are more than decorative; they are naturally made to be hypoallergenic, which means that unlike other forms of carpets, microorganism that cause allergies, dirt and dust do not stick to the threads. Therefore it serves as a great barrier to prevent such elements from causing your family health issues. It is a popular practice to put a buckskin carpet at an entry way to do exactly that. They are also very user-friendly as they can be easily vacuumed. These floor covers are also known to be more durable than synthetic varieties making them ideal for high traffic areas such as the living room and kitchen. They are strong enough to withstand spills and even over use. Some of the synthetic varieties have the issue of the wool or thread coming out in patches leaving an unsightly worn look, however this does not happen in these carpets as they tend to wear out more evenly. It seems the versatility and usefulness of these floor covers is creating a much coveted demand for these not only in western style cabins but also in modern homes.
