Lynx is one of the rarest and most beautiful furs in the world — prized for its long, silky guard hairs and creamy white belly fur marked with soft grey-black spots. A white lynx coat is instantly recognizable and unmistakably luxurious. Marc Kaufman Furs has selected and crafted lynx in New York City since 1870, and this collection gathers lynx coats, jackets, strollers, and vests in the finest Canadian and American cat lynx.
The whitest, softest lynx comes from the animal's belly — "lynx belly" fur — where the fur is palest and the spotting most delicate. Canadian lynx is the most sought-after, with long, plush, silvery-white fur; American cat lynx offers a slightly more defined spot pattern and a touch more contrast. Both are worked here into full-length lynx coats for drama, cropped jackets and strollers for everyday luxury, and vests for lighter layering.
Because only the pale belly sections are used for the whitest pieces, a single lynx coat takes many carefully matched skins, which is exactly what makes it one of the most exclusive furs a collector can own. It reads as pure luxury from across a room, and it has long been a favorite of performers and celebrities — you may recognize Canadian lynx from the screen. Given the rarity of the pelts, most lynx pieces are offered on a consultation basis.
Lynx is delicate and valuable, so it should be bought — and cared for — by experts. We match and cut every piece by hand and back it with the in-house cleaning, glazing, and cold storage that keep pale fur bright and supple. See our guide on how to store a fur coat to protect white lynx between seasons. Most pieces can be sized or made to order — request a quote, or visit our West 30th Street showroom to see lynx in person.
Lynx is one of the most exclusive furs in the world due to its limited availability, exotic origin, and the meticulous craftsmanship required to match the pelts. The most expensive and sought-after part of a lynx is the soft belly fur, which features a pure white base with distinct, dramatic black spots. The wider the white section and the clearer the spots, the more valuable the coat. Crafting a coat with perfectly matched, heavily spotted belly pelts is a hallmark of elite luxury.
Yes, absolutely. Because the lynx naturally inhabits some of the coldest, most unforgiving climates on earth—such as the Canadian and Russian tundras—their fur provides extraordinary natural insulation against freezing temperatures. Despite its incredibly dense, plush appearance, a high-quality lynx coat is remarkably lightweight, offering the perfect combination of bold high fashion and ultimate winter functionality.
