The African Zebra ( Burchell's Zebra ) run in herds on the plains of Africa where many predators often survive only by tracking and consuming these wild zebras, many of these zebras only survive by out running or barely escaping these predators: as a result many of these zebras end up with scars or scaring from close calls with lions, cheetahs and many others not to mention thorns , cacti and a host of other things that stick , cut and create blemishes on their Hides , This is how and why we grade our Zebra Skin Rugs the way we do.
There are even more subtleties, however, and it's all a subjective task, so frequently you might find that one person thinks an A grade zebra hide is slightly nicer than a AA, etc. When actually grading a zebra skin, the expert responsible may prioritize all of the elements that go into grading slightly differently than another, so there is no exact answer or blueprint.
Grading is mostly about imperfections. The more imperfections in a zebra hide, the lower the grade. Other elements of a hide like its pattern or size can go into grading, but only when it is a sort of outlier (a particularly large or small hide, an incredibly clear and beautiful pattern, etc). As an example, a particularly small zebra skin may end up as a B grade hide, even though it is otherwise umarked. Similarly, an absolutely massive Zebra may be bumped up in its Grade Class due to its extra large size.
The prices you see on our website have been judged by our team of experts to be a fair market price for any particular grade zebra hide; we individually photograph every zebra skin for our customers so that they can make the choice that's right for them.
