Cleaning/ Reconditioning

Cleaning/Reconditioning

One of the most important steps in taking care of your fur is to have your fur professionally cleaned, conditioned, and stored every year when the season is over. It is essential to the life of the fur that airborne particles such as dust, dirt, perfume, food odors, and even makeup, that collect on the hairs of the fur, be removed. The day-to-day accumulation of dust and pollutants can draw the natural oils out of the pelts causing the fur to quickly dry out. If this happens, the pelts become tender and brittle which can cause rips and tears. The cleaning and reconditioning process removes the dirt and odor and restores the oils and sheen leaving the garment nice and fresh, and luxurious.

Prolong the Life of Your Fur

You can prolong the life and beauty of your fur by storing it during the spring and summer months in a temperature, humidity and light controlled professional cold storage vault. There is no set time for when furs should be stored. However, as a rule, when the temperature is warm enough outside not to wear a coat then the coat should be stored for the season. Conversely, when the temperature is cold enough outside to justify wearing a coat, then it is time to call your garment from storage to wear for the season.
