Animal skin rugs gained prominence in Western interior design during the Victorian era and the colonial period, frequently brought back from expeditions in Africa and used to denote status, exploration, and worldly taste.

Hides are traditionally preserved through a process of scraping, salting, and chemical or bark tanning to stabilise the skin protein, ensuring the leather remains supple and the hair follicles stay intact.

Authentic hides feature natural irregularities, a realistic head and tail structure with stiff cartilage or backing felt, distinct hair texture, and individual stripe patterns that vary unlike uniform printed synthetic fabrics.

A graphic hide is typically placed over neutral hardwood flooring or low-pile carpets as a focal point in a study or living area, paired with minimalist furniture to balance the visual weight.

Preservation requires avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading, gentle vacuuming without a beater bar along the direction of the hair, and keeping the hide away from moisture and high-humidity areas.
