Slate is for people who want something with presence. It's the deepest colour in our collection, a rich charcoal grey that reads dark in low light and reveals subtle tonal variation when the light hits it. The colour is dyed onto genuine British sheepskin, and because each hide takes the dye slightly differently, no two slate rugs look exactly the same.
The texture of the wool is unchanged by the eco-dyeing process. Slate sheepskins have the same dense, soft pile as our lighter colours, with the same natural warmth, breathability, and temperature-regulating properties you'd expect from real wool.
Where slate works
Slate sheepskin is a strong choice for lighter interiors where you want a grounding element, something that anchors a room without being as stark as black. It looks sharp against white or cream-painted walls, pale wood, and light-coloured sofas.
It's also one of the most practical shades for everyday use. Dark wool hides marks well, making slate a good fit for living rooms, hallway benches, and home offices where your rug will see regular use.
Outdoors, slate adds a modern edge to garden furniture and patio seating, especially against natural wood or pale stone.
