By service life
10–25 years
Wool, sheepskin and bridle leather. Natural fibres with a real wear point, all of them repairable, most of them better at year ten than year one.
Everything here publishes the part that wears out first and whether we stock it. The figure is an estimate of household service life, not a warranty — how the mark works.

Counted from the catalog, not written down here. A published figure is an estimate of household service life and never a term of cover.
Ash & Leather Bellows
Bridle-hide gusset, brass nozzle, re-hideable
Wears first — The leather gusset, at the fold nearest the hinge, where it flexes most.
Wool Felt Hearth Mat
12 mm pressed felt, undyed, bound edge
Wears first — The bound edge nearest the fire, which scorches and frays first.
Undyed Camp Blanket
Heavyweight single-flock wool, whipped edge
Wears first — The whipped edge at the corners, where it is gripped and dragged.
Heavyweight Wool Throw
Twill weave, charcoal, fringed
Wears first — The fringe, which thins and tangles at the ends.
Full Sheepskin
Vegetable-tanned, undyed, single skin
Wears first — The wool at the spine line, which flattens under repeated weight.
Wool Floor Cushion
Felt shell, wool fill, leather carry strap
Wears first — The fill, which compacts. Expect it to lose about a third of its loft by year ten.
Log Carrier
18 oz waxed canvas, bridle leather handles
Wears first — The stitching where the leather handle meets the canvas — not the canvas and not the leather.
Kindling Tote
Waxed canvas bucket, leather-bound rim
Wears first — The base corners, which abrade on stone.
The First Winter
Poker, carrier, kindling tote, match safe and blanket
Wears first — The stitching at the log carrier handles, at roughly year fifteen.
