Caring for and Maintaining your Fur:
1. Always hang your fur on a broad-shouldered hanger, never on a wire hanger. Give your fur enough room in the closet so the fur is not crushed.
2. Never hang your fur in a plastic bag. Plastic prevents air from circulating and can dry out the leather. When traveling, store your fur in a cloth garment bag.
3. If your fur gets wet, shake it out and hang it to dry in a well-ventilated room. Keep it away from the direct heat or a radiator, which can cause both fur and leather to dry out. After it is dry, shake it again. Most furs will take some rain and snow far better than a wool or other winter coat will. If the fur is soaked through, however, bring it to us immediately for proper treatment. Never comb or brush the fur.
4. Never pin jewelry on your fur. Do not hang the shoulder straps of a handbag on your shoulder.
5. Never attempt to moth proof your fur yourself. Home treatments are no substitute for professional cleaning and storage.
6. Avoid spraying perfume or hairspray onto your fur.
7. Always store your fur with us during warm weather. The storage facilities we use are equipped with temperature, humidity, light-controlled storage vaults to protect and care for your fur.
8. Have us clean your fur annually even if you do not wear it. Chemically treated sawdust is used in the cleaning process and helps prevent the dying of fur pelts.
9. Have small rips or tears repaired immediately. This will prevent more expensive repairs later.
10. Avoid leaving a fur hanging in a bright place. The light can cause the fur to oxidize or change color.
