As comfy as a cardigan — but with a wild side.

Meet The Wooligan — the armchair that refuses to behave. Wrapped in gloriously untamed British rare breed sheepskin in natural shades of grey, brown and ivory, this is comfort with character and texture with attitude.

Rare breed sheepskin is wonderfully expressive, full of movement and individuality. To create each Wooligan, we carefully select and match 6-7 similar rare breed sheepskin rugs, considering tone, wool length, markings and flow. It’s a skilled, time-intensive process carried out entirely by hand in our North Wales workshop — and it means no two Wooligans are ever the same.

Sink into the deep, generous seat and you’ll see why customers compare it to wearing their favourite cardigan: cocooning, breathable and effortlessly cosy. Naturally temperature-regulating, the sheepskin keeps you comfortable year-round.

To complete the experience, The Wooligan can be paired with a matching sidekick, upholstered in the same carefully chosen sheepskin for a beautifully cohesive look. Choose a Regular Pouffe for relaxed, feet-down comfort; a Large Pouffe for full stretch-out lounging at seat height; or The Scallywag — a sturdy footstool on oak legs that echoes the chair’s stance while adding a little lift and structure.

Whether you choose the chair alone or build the full gang, The Wooligan is a one-of-a-kind statement piece designed to make you slow down, sink in, and stay put.

Sidekick Options

• Regular Pouffe – approx. 27cm high × 45cm diameter
  A lower, relaxed footrest for casual comfort.

• Large Pouffe – approx. 40cm high × 50cm diameter
  Seat-height lounging for maximum stretch-out comfort.

• The Scallywag Footstool – approx. 55cm wide × 45cm deep × 40cm high
  A sturdy footstool with oak legs that complement The Wooligan perfectly.

Rare breed sheepskin is wonderfully expressive – every piece is unique, with its own natural wool length, texture, curl and colour. No two fleeces are ever identical, which is exactly what gives rare breed pieces their character, depth and movement. Colour tones can range from soft creams and warm ivories through rich browns to deep, dark chocolate shades, often with beautiful variation across a single fleece. Some are long and flowing, others more textured and sculptural — all naturally occurring and impossible to replicate.

Choosing Your Wooligan

The numbered visual illustrations in the gallery show different sets of sheepskins laid over a Wooligan chair frame and carefully edited to give you the best possible representation of the finished chair.

Browse through the gallery and find the images with the wording ‘visual illustration‘ and simply choose the sheepskins that speak to you. Add that visual illustration number to the order notes section at checkout and the exact sheepskins shown in your chosen image are the ones we’ll use to upholster your chair.  If you add a sidekick we will use matching sheepskins to create a coherent set.

A Note About the visual illustrations

Our Wooligan chairs are individually handmade, so the numbered visual illustrations are intended to show how each sheepskin will look once made into a chair.

While we carefully edit each image to reflect the finished shape as accurately as possible, they remain visual illustrations rather than photographs of completed chairs.

Because sheepskin is a wonderfully natural material and every chair is upholstered by hand, there will be small variations in the finished appearance. The way the wool settles, the direction of the fleece and the exact positioning of the natural markings may differ slightly from the visual illustration.

What won’t change is the sheepskin itself. The sheepskins shown in your chosen gallery image are the ones that will be used to make your chair, so you can buy with confidence knowing you’ll receive the colour, texture and natural character you’ve selected.
