Points

When buying a fur coat, you should have some knowledge of furs. For instance, turs are divided into three parts: the lea- ther, the pelage or under fur, and the guard hair, or longer, to the stiffer fur. When the term "prime" is used, it refers finest furs on the market. These skins are from animals in- habiting the coldest climates, and the sking are taken toward the end of the winter, when the fur has reached its heaviest and glossiest. Always buy from a reliable furrier, then decide on price, style and kind of fur coat desired.
