WHERE WE ARE NOW
At the core of our ethos lies a dedication to preserving artisanal traditions that span millennia. Utilising wool-on tanning techniques and vintage machinery from the 1920s and 30s, we transform raw materials into exquisite sheepskin home accessories.
Our products now grace our local shops in Waternish and Portree and online boutique, showcasing the timeless allure of Scottish and British craftsmanship.
Every piece bearing the Skyeskyns name is meticulously handmade in small, limited-edition batches at our Waternish tannery, the beating heart of our family enterprise.
Using mimosa tree bark tanning, we produce luxuriously soft leather in harmony with the environment. Waste generated in the tanning process finds new life through our sustainable practices, with remnants composted and returned to nourish our croft and woodland.
