Cowhide patchwork rug, gray, 180x120 cm

A cowhide rug, but with a twist: in squares. This patchwork rug is constructed from 10 x 10 cm square pieces of cowhide, neatly stitched together into a single, seamless whole. The result? A rug that combines the natural warmth of cowhide with the calm lines of a tile pattern.

This gray variant consists of light gray and silver-gray squares, interspersed with off-white. Cool, calm, and timeless: beautiful on a concrete floor, in a modern or industrial interior, and paired with black steel.

Each small square comes from a genuine cowhide, so no two squares are exactly alike. It is precisely that slight difference in shade and pattern that makes the rug so vibrant. The hairs are firmly attached, the rug is odor-free, and it has a beautiful, silky-soft sheen.

Always a look-a-like copy

These patchwork rugs are assembled by color. So you’ll receive a rug that closely resembles the photo, but because each square comes from real hide, the distribution of light and dark squares may vary slightly. That’s not a mistake—it’s nature.

How do you use a patchwork rug?

Measuring 180 x 120 cm, this is a great size for under a coffee table, next to your bed, in the home office, or in a spacious entryway. Thanks to its rectangular shape, the rug lies flat and neatly on the floor—ideal if you prefer a clean, uncluttered look. Would you rather have the natural shape of a whole hide? Then take a look at my cowhides.

A patchwork rug is also a real eye-catcher on the wall: a warm, tactile alternative to a painting above the couch or in the stairwell.

Maintenance

• Shake or tap the rug out occasionally, or brush it gently in the direction of the fur.
• Spilled something? Blot the area dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth (do not rub!).
• Remove stubborn stains with a small amount of mild soap and lukewarm water.
• Leather and water don’t mix: use the rug indoors, in a dry place.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this real cowhide?

Yes. Each block is cut from genuine, tanned cowhide. Cowhide is a byproduct of the meat industry: by tanning the hide, it is given a second life instead of being thrown away.

Can a patchwork rug be placed on radiant floor heating?

Yes, that’s perfectly fine. Lightly mist the rug with a plant sprayer every now and then during the winter months to prevent the leather from drying out.

How soon will I receive the rug?

In the Netherlands, delivery is usually within 1–2 business days. For orders over €100, I offer free shipping within the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany, and you have a 30-day return window.

Is this rug available in other colors as well?

Yes, this patchwork rug is available in white, champagne beige, gray, gray-brown, and brown. You’ll find them all among the cowhide rugs.
