"A" skins = top quality (very rare). "E" quality = skins with many flaws. PLEASE NOTE: All our product photos of sealskin on this webshop are taken from C or B skins. Colour tones vary from skin to skin. Sizes vary from skin to skin. It is NOT the skin you see in the product photo that you are purchasing. Do you have specific requests for a skin? - then just write it in the comments on your order, and we will do our best to find a suitable skin - but we offer no guarantees on requests. Quality descriptions: A, B, C, D, E and rejected. A-skins have a maximum of two flaws. B-skins can have up to eight flaws. C-skins can have multiple flaws, as well as one or two larger flaws. D-skins may have areas completely without hair or hard leather. E and rejected skins are typically very damaged skins and with discolouration, which can only be used for the production of very small items, after which the rest of the skin is completely discarded. In Great Greenland's own production of finished goods, we primarily work with C and D qualities. Seals live in the wild, which is why "damages" often occur naturally, reducing the skin quality. However, this is also what makes each individual sealskin completely unique! The quality specifications therefore indicate something about the general condition of the skin. How perfect, or imperfect the skin is. Read more about sealskin here:Dyed sealskin: At Great Greenland, we primarily sell natural skins, but we also dye many skins in popular and fashionable colours. Dyeing is only considered if the natural skin is severely discoloured. Dyeing thus saves the skin from being discarded, ensuring sustainable production. A beautiful natural skin will never be dyed if there is no need for it. All sealskins processed by Great Greenland are caught by Greenlandic Inuit hunters along the Greenlandic coast. All skins are tanned at Great Greenland's tannery in South Greenland. All sealskins comply with EU legislation regarding sealskin. Only sealskins caught by Inuit are approved for sale, production, and import into the EU. See more here onthe EU's official website:Ringed Seals:The ringed seal is also known as netside, and it is probably the seal most people associate with Greenland. Its distinctive markings along its back have been seen on Inuit traditional clothing for hundreds of years, and today the skin is still used for both clothing and interiors.The ringed seal is naturally light grey but has strong dark ring markings along its back, which can vary from light grey, dark brown, to almost black. The appearance of the skin varies greatly but is always decorative. Ringed seals are available in both long-haired (LH) and short-haired (KH). The long-haired has a more furry appearance, while the short-haired is flatter. The short-haired ringed seal is also significantly larger than the long-haired.Decorative or handicraft skins? Sealskins are extremely decorative. Can be used as, among other things, rugs, as cushions in chairs or sofas. Only imagination sets the limits. Sealskin behaves like other leather goods regarding wear and maintenance. A wonderful material for handicrafts. PLEASE NOTE: All our skin product photos on this webshop are taken from B & C skin qualities. The sealskins are all unique and can therefore vary in both size and colour nuances within the same quality group.
