Learning About Sheepskin: Types

Mongolian Lambskin

This type of lamb is made up of long, wavy, silky hair.

Tibetan Lamb:

Tibetan Lamb

Originating in China, the Tibetan lamb is similar to the Mongolian lambswool.

It differs from the Mongolian lamb as it is silkier and frizzier in texture.

Tibetan lamb is soft and can be up to four inches in length and has a slight curl to it.

Persian Lambswool

also referred to as karakul, or carakul. It is formally known as astrakhan. 

The difference in age allows for the fur to develop from the moiré pattern to 

a tight, close curl allowing for a distinctive look.

Mouton Lambskin

Mouton lamb is sheared sheepskin. 

Shearling Sheepskin

Shearling is natural sheepskin that has been sheared, 

similar to that of moutan lambskin, while the leather side has been sueded.
