Beaver fur coat

Beaver fur coat

Fur coats from beaver are beautiful and wear-resistant 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 for these coats exist, and also talk about analogues.

Working with expensive furs, designers themselves prefer simple styles and cuts - a straight or fitted beaver fur coat just below the knee length - a universal and very stylish option for all time. It is not bad if the coat is equipped with a hood - it will successfully protect the head and hair not only from the wind, but also from wet snow, as the beaver fur has water-repellent properties.

What is it?

Often on the labels of fur coats “beaver fur” appears and you need to know that this material is not related to beaver at all. The beaver is the even and dense fur of a royal rabbit or a rex rabbit. This breed appeared in France, the animals had skins with a brownish-red tint and an unusual fur structure: much shorter and denser than ordinary rabbits. So the breed received the name "Castor Rex" - the king of beavers. A gentle, even and soft pile is popular with manufacturers, and it is also not too expensive, which customers like.

But fur coats from natural beaver - a value from the time of ancient Russia. This fur is considered the warmest, it successfully fits the most severe climate, it is not afraid of moisture - under wet snow or rain, a beaver fur coat becomes even more beautiful - the fur is fluffy and does not turn into sticky icicles. Natural beaver fur is superior in quality to the mink and stands at the top of the hierarchy of bellows by wear.

Many factories that sew beaver coats 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 the price, the most expensive are the fur coats of plucked beaver. The cost is high due to the exclusive time-consuming technology of working with fur, during which the product becomes lightweight and durable, without losing other characteristics. The fact is that beaver fur is stiff, and to give it plasticity, the outer hair is plucked out manually.

The fur of the swamp beaver, like the beaver, is not entirely related to this animal. Swamp beaver is called nutria, which is successfully grown in captivity, because their fur is relatively cheap. But coats from 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 in shades and types of such fur coats are numerous.

Fur coats made of beaver fur are very original. This is a type of skinning when the finished product is textured, striped. Since beaver fur lends itself well to cutting, the pile on such fur coats can be very short, less than half a centimeter.

Models

Since the beaver’s fur is not cheap, and the cost of individual models can reach unthinkable heights, it is better to purchase a classic model of a fur coat from such material. The properties of beaver fur allow carrying a fur coat for fifteen to twenty years and the model for such a large period should be universal.

Working with expensive furs, designers themselves prefer simple styles and cut - a straight or fitted beaver coat just below the knee - a universal and very stylish option for all times. It is not bad if the coat is equipped with a hood - it will successfully protect the head and hair not only from the wind, but also from wet snow, as the beaver fur has water-repellent properties.

Since the beaver fur is not long, there are many combined models of fur coats - with silver fox, arctic fox or fox. A hem with fluffy and longer fur does not harm the “canonicity” of the product, but rather makes it more interesting. In addition, due to this effect, it is possible to hide the flaws of the figure - for example, a voluminous collar will balance the figure - “pear”.

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

Fur coats from beaver are in great demand among men, there is even an opinion that this is generally men's fur. Restrained, practical and with purely functional virtues, beaver fur like a strong half of humanity. Outerwear from beaver for men exudes status - a laconic cut, high-quality barely noticeable accessories, impeccable fur dressing.

Color schemes

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

Beaver fur is rarely dyed, even less often - in bright colors. If we talk about the fur of nutria, then there are a dozen natural shades of fur, from animals bred in captivity. Colors range from snow-white and cream-white to yellow, smoky, silver-blue and graphite-black.

As for the color of beaver fur coats, they can be any. Rabbit fur is easily dyed and you can find fur coats not only throughout the classic palette, but also bright, multi-colored: red, pink, purple, blue.

Manufacturers

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

Russian manufacturers also produce fur coats from beaver. Some of them are from Russian fur, which hunters rent to factories.This is the most valuable option, such furs undergo minimal processing, whole skins go to the fur coats, often this is the cub’s fur. Fur purchased at auctions is also in price. You can buy beaver coats from such giants of the Russian market as Melita or The Snow Queen.

Beaver fur coats are sewn by different manufacturers, including China. Entire fur-coat tours are collected there, many of whose participants are aimed at buying a beaver fur coat. A competently selected product made in China will be an order of magnitude cheaper than other factories, but at the same time have decent quality.

Selection tips

When purchasing a product from beaver, it is important to understand how to distinguish natural fur from a fake. There are some methods that can help you make the right purchase:

  • Rate the fur by touch

Natural and sheared fur beaver pricks, if you hold it with your palm. The outer fur is tougher, it will prickle and rustle. If you push the fur apart and take a closer look, these thick, thick hairs will be found in the thick of the down pad. If you have a rabbit in front of you, there will be no such effect - its fur is soft, uniform. However, when you consider a product from a plucked beaver, there will be no "taunting", here you need to focus on other signs.

  • Fur plate size

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

  • Look inside out

Fur coats have two types of lining - closed or flap. The first option is simpler - you can move it away and look at the fur mezra. If you are ready to buy an expensive product, but it has a closed lining, try to negotiate with the seller and slightly open it. Why is this needed? To evaluate the skin surface of the skin. If it is a beaver, then they will be dense, strong and thick, in a rabbit - as thin as a rag.

  • Pay attention to shade

A small color scheme is a sign that in front of you are beaver coats. The color of the natural skin is fandum or ash brown, which has transitions from dark to light. Beavers are painted black, by clarification they achieve red, cream or golden. 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.

  • Price Oriented

Fur of a beaver cannot be cheap; its minimum cost starts from 100,000 rubles. Suspiciously low price means that you have a fur coat from the fur of another animal, even if the seller explains this by the sale of last year's collection or discounts.

  • Request a fur certificate

After all, 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 “rebbit”, “rex rebbit” or “orilag” - this is rabbit or beaver fur.

It is good if the seller can show you the catalogs of factory manufacturers that contain photographs of the model that interests you. Particularly incredulous people may even ask for the manufacturer’s contacts and find out if they work with a point of sale.

Reviews

Among the reviews about beaver coats, you can find a lot of useful ones shared by the owners and owners of such fur coats. Most often, it is advised to purchase fur coats from a Canadian beaver by choosing a worthy producer in Russia. “Let this fur coat go a penny, but it will not be demolished. Easy, warm, thing for life, practically, ”they write on the forums.

But often reviews, full of disappointment. Inexperienced buyers purchase fur coats from a rabbit, which are mistaken for a sheared beaver. “I bought a fur coat cheaply, but I was sure that the beaver.After the first snow, everything fell off, became wet and heavy, the fur climbed. And all because I bought spontaneously, on the go, without reading how to distinguish fake from real fur. ”

There are also lucky ones on the forums who are fortunate enough to purchase fur from hunters. With skins, they came to the studio and received an exclusive model for little money. Many go on fur coats on tours to Greece or the UAE, working with operators who offer shopping at proven reliable factories. Products purchased for solid money and having quality certificates have been pleasing owners for the tenth season.

  • You need to choose wisely. I walked around ten points today, with the appearance of a fur coat - a beaver, and a closer look - a rabbit. You need to select stores by reviews, not pay attention to very low prices. You won’t buy a beaver anyway ...
  • Buying a beaver is difficult, but I was lucky. I’ve been wearing a sheared fur coat for five years now, I haven’t even taken it for cleaning - it looks like new. The fur did not jam, did not get dirty, and can withstand public transport. It’s not hot if you go into the room for a short while. Easy, beautiful!
  • In a good fur salon they will allow to spread the lining, if you are confident in your quality! Yesterday it happened to me, I bought a fur coat from a sheared beaver with a trot, the price is 210,000 rubles. But there are cheaper models - up to the knee beaver can be taken for 100,000 rubles.
  • If you take a beaver, then only the classic style. To wear such a fur coat for at least ten seasons, the fashion will change more than once. I have a dark brown, natural, not sheared. I’ve been in it for 11 years, I can’t get enough of it. Now, it seems to me, one cannot find such. During this time, I wore it twice in dry cleaning, and before that it was like new, and after cleaning it became luxurious, like from a boutique!
