Our large online inventory of rugs is authentic, affordable, and ships straight to your front door. Shop from the comfort of your own home without ever having to go out to a rug store. Read on to learn about four beautiful styles of cowhide rugs and how they can fit into your home.
Traditional Cowhide Rug
When you think "cowhide rug," what image comes to mind? Most probably think of an irregularly-shaped rug with white, brown, and black colors. At eCowhides, we carry a large inventory of authentic, traditional Brazilian cowhide rugs. While traditionally thought of as a more rustic rug, today many people use them to decorate their homes even if they don’t have a rustic style. These rugs can look good in any room in the house. From the bedrooms to the living room, a cowhide rug can serve as a great starting point for your décor. At eCowhides, we have many different styles of traditional cowhide rugs. The first step is figuring out what size rug you need. In the traditional cowhide rug style we offer 3 sizes: large, XL, and XXL. Here are the specifications of each size:
- Large: 6’ x 6’ – 8 lbs
- XL: 7’ x 6’ – 10 lbs
- XXL: 8’ X 7’ – 12lbs
The best way to figure out what size you need is to grab a measuring tape and some painter’s tape. Mark off the dimensions of the rug size you think you want. Based on how you feel, adjust from there. The second step is determining what color rug you want. Our traditional cowhide rugs also come in many different color options. Here is what we have available:
- Tricolor

Patchwork Rug
A patchwork cowhide rug is another fabulous option. These rugs are rectangular and contain patches of cowhide. These beautiful rugs look great in contemporary homes. The rectangular shape fits in well with the geometric patterns that are common in contemporary décor. The patchwork rugs come in the following 3 sizes:
- 6’ x 4’ – 10 lbs
- 8’ x 5’ – 15 lbs
- 10’ x 8’ – 30 lbs
When it comes to patchwork rugs, not only do homeowners need to make a decision about the color of the rugs, but they also need to decide what patch shape they want. The rugs come with square-, diamond-, pyramid-shaped patches, and more! Here is what we have available for patch colors and shapes in our patchwork collection:
- Brindle squares
- Tricolor squares
- Checker squares
- Black and white stripes
- Black salt and pepper squares

Since there are so many different options, the best place to start is figuring out what color you want in your room. Think about the color of your furniture and the color of the walls. Decide whether you are going for a lighter look or a darker look in the room. This will help you pick a color.
