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 with regard to wear and maintenance. A wonderful material for crafting. <\/p>\n 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 sealskins. Only Inuit-caught sealskins are approved for sale, production and import in the EU. See more here on Harp seal\/Greenland seal: The harp seal is also called the Greenland seal or silk seal. The name silk seal is a very apt description of the skin’s appearance \u2013 it is shiny and soft, and it gleams like silk. The harp seal is primarily used for clothing, but it is also extremely decorative for interiors.<\/strong> The harp seal is characterised by its natural grey colour and the sporadic spots that are spread over the skin. Some sealskins have many spots, some have few.<\/strong><\/p>\n PLEASE NOTE: <\/strong>All our skin product photos here in the webshop are taken from B & C skin qualities.
