As an interior design element, cowhides undeniably make a striking statement. At Art Hide, we've built our reputation on transforming this natural material into bespoke works of art. Beyond their undeniable aesthetic appeal, cowhide rugs have unique qualities that add even more to their charm.
Naturally Hypoallergenic
Unlike synthetic floor coverings that can harbour dust mites and allergens, cowhide rugs are naturally hypoallergenic. The dense, short hair structure doesn't trap dust or pollen, making them an excellent choice for any interior.
Unmatched Durability
When investing in a quality cowhide rug from Art Hide, you're acquiring an heirloom piece designed to last generations. The natural oils in properly treated hide create an inherent resistance to stains and spills. While other rugs deteriorate with foot traffic, cowhide actually becomes more supple and grows character over time, developing a beautiful patina of your home.
Sustainable Design
Our cowhide rugs are designed with ethical principles. At Art Hide, we source responsibly and exclusively from the food industry by-products.
Versatility
While stunning as floor coverings, cowhides' versatility extends far beyond this traditional placement. Our commissions include vertical art installations and statement upholstery in luxury commercial projects across Australia and internationally. Of course, it can also be draped elegantly over furniture as a throw.
Color Transformation Possibilities
At Art Hide, we love experimenting with color. At our design studio, we've developed proprietary techniques allowing us to offer over 200 custom colors, including our signature metallics. The color never compromises the hide's natural grain pattern, ensuring each piece remains genuinely one of a kind.
