Fur
doesn’t refer to a single type of textile; instead, it’s a
catch-all term used to describe numerous pelts. Those new to the
world of fur will find it useful to know exactly the differences
between each type, especially among furs that look oddly the same at
first glance. Additionally, the ability to appraise and correctly
identify fur can help buyers make smarter purchases.
If
the fur’s color is between gray or slate blue, the garment is
likely made from chinchilla. Otherwise, if the fur is dense and tan
in color, it might be coyote fur. Should the fur appear white with
black tips, it’s undoubtedly made from ermine, one of the most
iconic furs there is. There are many other fur types possible, and
owners can tell them apart simply by looking carefully at the fabric
used. Simply put, the appearance of a fur can be a dead giveaway to
its origins, and most furs are used without dye, making
identification easier.
Some
owners can be confused in determining the type of fur used in their
garments. There are furs, after all, that look exactly the same yet
are made from different pelts, such as mink and fox. Those itching to
properly identify their fur clothes might want to take them to a
professional fur dealer who can properly evaluate the textile.
