Professional Fur Cleaning

Fur and fur-trimmed apparel should be cleaned annually, by a professional furrier like Marc Kaufman. Never attempt to clean a fur garment at home or to bring your precious pieces to your local dry cleaners’. Solvents used in standard dry cleaning processes may leave the fur flat or may cause the fur to fall out. Unlike cloth, which is cleaned by immersion, fur is cleaned by abrasion.

After being carefully cleaned, your fur garment is then glazed to bring out the sheen and make it soft and fluffy. Flat curly furs such as broadtail are pressed with a special type of waxed paper to give them added sheen. Fur-trimmed garments and fur accessories should be treated like fur coats and cleaned only by a professional furrier. Fur cleaning and glazing is an essential practice for protecting the natural luster and supple texture of your fur garments. All furs need to be professionally cleaned and glazed each year, not only to preserve the garment’s exterior, but also the leather underside and interior lining.

Professional cleaning and care will extend the life of your fur garment. If your fur coat gets wet from rain or snow, simply shake it out and hang it to dry in an open space away from heat. After the fur has dried, give it another shake and the hairs will fall back into place. If you spill anything other than water on your fur coat, Do not rub the excess moisture away. Take it to down to Marc Kaufman Furs for immediate attention!
