This is an excellent, premium cowhide rug with beautiful brindle, light brown coloring that fades to darker stripes and speckled patterns; it is sometimes described as "tiger-striped", although the brindle pattern is more subtle than that of a tiger's coat. Brindle coloration shows the streaks of color as irregular and darker than the base color of the coat; although, very dark markings can be seen on a coat that is only slightly lighter. The cowhide (also referred to as cow hide, steer hide, steer hide) is a brand-new example that has been professionally tanned and is in pristine condition. The rug is also considered an Extra-Large (XL) to Extra-Extra-Large (XXL) size, being 8 feet long by 6 feet 7 inches.
