Fur Storage
Fur storage is a critical part of any fur's life span. All furs are stored in our temperature and humidity controlled storage vault, providing the ideal storage environment for optimum fur care. Humidified air is continually circulated throughout the vault. This keeps natural oils from drying out, and maintains the sheen and luster.
Fur storage insurance is limited
to $100 while in our possession. Additional insurance coverage
is available, 
but most garment
owners have a fur floater policy attached to their homeowners
insurance that covers the full declared value of the garment
while in our possession and in transit. Storage service charges
cover from the date of pick-up through December 31 of the same
year.
Fur
Cleaning
All furs are cleaned
using a special non-immersion process commonly referred to as
the furrier method. Linings are hand cleaned to remove makeup,
dirt and ground-in soil. Furs are gently tumbled with solvent
impregnated powders. Furs are glazed by an electrifying process
that brings out the natural oils of the pelts to provide a lustrous
appearance. Linings are pressed. Fur and lining seams are repaired
as needed. Great care is taken to produce a beautiful, luxurious
fur garment for your customer.
Sheepskin
and Seat covers
Sheepskins are selectively
processed by the fur cleaning method or solvent methods depending
on the type of skins and tanning techniques that were used. Both
methods are charged with oils as in leather cleaning which simultaneously
replenishes oils to the hides. This allows the skin to retain
its soft, pliable nature.
After cleaning, the sheepskin is de-matted by an electrifying
process which fluffs the fur to a full and luxurious condition.
Lastly the sheepskin is hand brushed and packaged to complete
the fresh fluffy appearance.
Sheepskins should be checked carefully for stains, skin separation
and hard spots on back. Some color loss is to be expected due
to oxidation from exposure to sunlight and synthetic brighteners.
