Reindeer Hide Rugs – Genuine Reindeer Skin Rugs for Sale in the UK

Discover the natural luxury of a genuine reindeer hide rug at Hide Rugs. Each reindeer skin rug in our collection is hand-selected for its exceptional softness, distinctive markings and timeless Nordic character. Whether you're searching for a statement reindeer pelt for the living room, a cosy reindeer hide throw for the sofa, or a soft deer skin rug for the bedroom, you'll find the perfect piece in our curated UK collection.

Why Choose a Reindeer Hide Rug?

A real reindeer rug is unlike any other natural hide. The fur features naturally hollow fibres that trap heat, making reindeer hide rugs wonderfully warm and insulating all year round. This same quality is why reindeer skin has been treasured in Scandinavia for centuries — equally beautiful as a reindeer fur rug on the floor, a reindeer hide blanket draped over a chair, or a reindeer hide throw layered across the end of a bed.

Every reindeer pelt is completely one-of-a-kind. Natural variations in colour, markings and shape mean no two hides are ever the same, so when you buy reindeer hide from Hide Rugs you're investing in a piece that genuinely can't be replicated.

Our Reindeer Hide Collection

We've grouped our reindeer hides for sale into easy-to-browse collections so you can find the right piece for your space.

Shop Reindeer Hide by Colour

Each hide is naturally unique, with subtle variations in tone and pattern. Our reindeer hides are grouped into four beautiful shade families to make choosing easier:

Natural Reindeer Hide – balanced mid-tones with a mix of browns, creams and greys. The classic, most versatile choice and our largest collection.

Dark Reindeer Hide – rich chocolate browns and deep earthy tones for a dramatic, statement look.

Light Reindeer Hide – softer blends of creams, greys and white, perfect for brighter, airier interiors.

White Reindeer Hide – our rarest shade, with bright white tones and soft natural markings.

Shop Reindeer Hide by Size

Because every reindeer hide is a slightly different shape, we measure each one by length and group them into four sizes. Width varies naturally from hide to hide.

Small Reindeer Hide – up to 119 cm. Ideal as an accent piece, chair throw or layering rug.

Medium Reindeer Hide – 120 to 129 cm. A versatile mid-size, popular as a bedside rug or sofa drape.

Large Reindeer Hide – 130 to 139 cm. Our most popular size for living rooms and bedrooms.

Extra Large Reindeer Hide – 140 cm and over. A true statement reindeer pelt rug for bigger spaces.

Caring for Your Reindeer Rug

Reindeer rugs are designed primarily for aesthetics, and a little care goes a long way to keeping yours looking beautiful for years. Here are the essentials:

Use in low-traffic areas. Reindeer hides are best suited to bedrooms, draped over sofas or used as wall hangings, rather than busy hallways.

Avoid heat sources. Keep your reindeer rug away from radiators, fireplaces and underfloor heating, as extreme heat causes the hollow hairs to moult.

Don't vacuum. Simply give the rug a gentle shake outside every couple of weeks to remove dust. A light brush with a plastic brush helps keep the fur soft.

Expect some initial shedding. A small amount of moulting is completely normal when your rug is new and will settle down after a few weeks.

Handle spills quickly. Blot (don't rub) with an absorbent cloth. For stubborn marks, use a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild shampoo and allow to dry naturally, away from direct sunlight.

Reindeer Hide FAQs

Are reindeer rugs ethical?

Yes. Our reindeer hides are responsibly sourced as a by-product of the food industry, making them a sustainable and ethical choice.

Do reindeer rugs shed?

A little moulting is normal when your reindeer rug is new. Shake it out every few days and it'll settle down within a few weeks.

Can I use a reindeer rug on the floor?

Absolutely — just choose a low-traffic spot like a bedroom or beside a sofa. Reindeer hides aren't built for constant footfall, so avoid hallways and kitchens.

Can I put a reindeer hide on underfloor heating?

We don't recommend it. Heat dries out the hide and causes the hollow hairs to moult more than usual.

How do I clean a reindeer rug?

A simple shake outside every couple of weeks is usually all it needs. For spills, blot quickly with an absorbent cloth and use only a tiny amount of mild shampoo with lukewarm water if necessary.

How long do reindeer rugs last?

With proper care, a genuine reindeer hide rug can last for many years. Keeping it away from heat, pets and high-traffic areas will significantly extend its lifespan.
