Beaver Fur Coat

Beaver fur coats are beautiful and durable products that are not often found in the store. The fact is that beavers are not bred in captivity, and their fur is very rare. Consider what options these fur coats exist, and also talk about analogues.

Working with expensive furs, the designers themselves prefer simple styles and cuts - a straight or fitted fur coat made of beaver just below the knee is a versatile and very stylish option for all times. Not bad, if the fur coat is equipped with a hood - it will successfully protect the head and haircut not only from the wind, but also from wet snow, since the beaver's fur has water-repellent properties.

Often on the labels of fur coats there is “beaver fur” and you need to know that this material has no relation to beaver at all. The beaver is an even and dense royal rabbit or rex rabbit fur. This breed appeared in France, the animals had skins with a brownish-red tint and an unusual fur structure: much shorter and denser than that of ordinary rabbits. So the breed was named "Castor Rex" - the king of beavers. Gentle, smooth and soft nap is popular with manufacturers, it is also not too expensive, what customers like.

But fur coats from natural beaver - the value since the days of ancient Russia. This fur is considered the warmest, it successfully fits the most severe climate, it is not afraid of moisture - under a sleet or rain the fur coat from the beaver becomes even more beautiful - the fur puffs and does not turn into stuck icicles. The natural fur of the beaver surpasses mink in its qualities and stands at the top of the hierarchy of furs in wear.

Many factories, sewing fur coats from beaver, prefer Canadian fur. The Canadian beaver is a reasonable combination of beauty, wearing comfort, quality and price. Quite rightly, this type of fur is considered the best. With regards to prices, the most expensive are the coats of plucked beaver. The cost is high due to the exclusive time-consuming technology of working with fur, during which the product becomes light and durable, without losing other characteristics. The fact is that the beaver fur is tough, and to give it plasticity, the guard hair is pulled out by hand.

The fur of a marsh beaver, like a beaver, does not quite relate to this animal. Swamp beavers are called nutria, which are successfully grown in captivity, because their fur is relatively cheap. But the coats of nutria are also very beautiful, strong and not afraid of moisture. Since there are several breeds and colors of nutria, bred in an artificial environment, variations of shades and types of such fur coats are numerous.

Because beaver fur is not cheap, and the cost of individual models can reach unimaginable heights, it is better to purchase a classic model of a fur coat made from such material. The properties of beaver fur allow you to carry a fur coat for fifteen to twenty years and the model for such a large period should be universal.

Since the beaver fur is not long, there are many combined models of fur coats - with silver fox, Arctic fox or fox.The fringe is more fluffy and long fur does not harm the "canonicity" of the product, but on the contrary, makes it more interesting. In addition, due to this effect, you can hide figure flaws - for example, a voluminous collar will balance the “pear” figure.

There are models of beaver large. These coats are sewn according to the general rules - usually they have a “robe” or “trapezium” cut, stand-up collar and slightly flared sleeves. Designers advise not to buy a fur coat from a straight-cut beaver if you are unhappy with your figure. Furless fur alone will not hide the flaws, it is only by the skillful hands of the designer.

Beaver fur coats are in great demand among men, there is even an opinion that it is generally male fur. Discreet, practical and with purely functional virtues, beaver fur like a strong half of humanity. Outerwear from beaver for men radiates status - laconic cut, high-quality unobtrusive accessories, flawless manufacture of fur.

Real beaver fur has a complex color - something between ashen and brown. It is not very expressive, rather, “dusty” shade, which at the same time has a lot of fans. Often the beaver fur is tinted, lightening or vice versa, darkening the fur. So the shades of brown are obtained: biscuit, nutty, pearl or coffee.

Fur beaver rarely painted, even less often - in bright colors. If we talk about nutria fur, then there are about a dozen natural shades of fur, from animals, bred in captivity. The colors range from pure white and white and cream to yellow, smoky, silver blue and graphite black.

Above, we talked about the fur of a Canadian beaver, which, of course, is actively used in local factories. Canadian manufacturers sew expensive fur products, which are very valuable around the world.

Russian manufacturers also produce fur coats from beaver. Some of them are from the Russian fur, which hunters sell to the factories. This is the most valuable option, such furs are subjected to minimal processing, on the fur coats there are whole skins, often this is fur of cubs. Fur purchased at auction, also in price. You can buy beaver fur coats from such giants of the Russian market as “Melita” or “Snow Queen”.

Beaver fur coats sew different manufacturers, including China. There are collecting whole fur coats, many of whose members are aimed to buy a beaver fur coat. Properly selected Chinese-made products will be much cheaper than other factories, but at the same time have a decent quality.

When purchasing a beaver product, it is important to understand how to distinguish natural fur from fake. There are some methods that will help not to make a mistake with the purchase:

• Rate the fur to the touch

The natural and trimmed fur of a beaver is pricked, if you hold it with your palm. The skeletal fur is tougher, and it will tingle and rustle. If you push the fur and take a closer look, then in the thick of the undercoat will find these tough, thick hairs. If there is a rabbit in front of you, there will be no such effect - its fur is soft, uniform. However, when you are considering a product from a pinned beaver, there will be no “barbs”; here you need to focus on other signs.

• Size of fur plate

For sewing fur coats almost always use solid plates, which are approximately 40 to 50 centimeters in size. (for comparison, the rabbit has about 20 to 30 centimeters). If possible, inspect the product carefully, match the size of the skins. But do not forget that beaver skins are sometimes still cut, if it is required by the style or in front of you a fur coat “cross-section”.

• Look at the wrong side

Fur coats have two types of lining - closed or departure. With the first option is simpler - it can be pushed aside and see the fur core. If you are ready to buy an expensive product, but it has a closed lining, try to negotiate with the seller and slightly unzip it. Why do you need it? To evaluate the leather surface of the skin. If it is a beaver, then they will be dense, strong and thick, in a rabbit - thin, like a rag.

• Pay attention to shade

A small range of colors - a sign that in front of you coats of beaver. The color of natural skins - fandum or ash-brown, having transitions from dark to light. The beaver is dyed black, and it is reddish, creamy or golden by lightening. It seems to you that none of the listed shades is similar to the one in front of you - this is an occasion to think.

• Navigate by price

Beaver fur can not be cheap, its minimum cost starts from 100,000 rubles. A suspiciously low price suggests that you are wearing a fur coat made from another animal’s fur, even if the seller explains this by selling off last year’s collection or discounts.

• Ask for a certificate for fur

In the end, the buyer is not required to understand the fur. In order not to buy a fake, you should ask the seller for a quality certificate. It should contain the following words: “beaver”, “bieber” or “castor” in Greek, “biaver” in English. If you see "Rebbet", "Rex Rebbit" or "Orilag" - this is rabbit fur or beaver.
