The rich browns overpower the natural off white skin of the Nguni are of course the natural colors of the cow.

Hides make great carpetss, throw or wall hangings. It is heavy as any cow hide would be. There is so little maintenance that I've enjoyed my Nguni skin for over 12 years as an area carpet on hardwood floors. A little shaking and sweeping is all that's needed.

Nguni is the cowhide that is used to make the traditional Zulu War Shields by the Zulu People in Kwa Zulu Natal, South Africa, which is where I purchased both the hides and shields
