Exceptional fur coat from the late 40s


The term ‘mouton’ (pronounced MOO-tawn) originates from the French word for mutton and in the fur industry, refers to pelts from lambs or sheep. Mouton is a high-grade lambskin that’s specially processed to mimic the density and radiance of sheared beaver or mink fur. The wool fibers of a mouton pelt are straight, not curly. Sheared to an even ½ inch depth, mouton is very plush and has a soft, velvety feel. With its glowing highlights and natural sheen, high quality mouton can easily be mistaken for much more expensive types of fur. It can be dyed in many shades, but chocolate brown is the most commonly found color.

This exceptional coat is soft, very warm and neutral enough to wear every day. Perfect with jeans as well as gowns.
