Where to buy natural sable fur

The most important thing is that you need to buy sable fur only in specialized fur salons and stores that have been selling sable fur coats or sets for many years. The exception is large fairs with a long-standing reputation: for example, the famous fur auctions held in St. Petersburg.

At little-known fairs, unscrupulous traders often resort to deception. Usually they try to pass off marten fur as sable fur. Both fur-bearing animals belong to the mustelidae family, but marten fur is of much poorer quality. Biologists also consider the Canadian sable to be a marten, but fur manufacturers still classify it as a sable and label it accordingly. This is also worth considering when purchasing.

How to distinguish real sable fur from a fake

Experts advise performing a few simple manipulations that will allow you to distinguish natural sable skins from substitutes. Before purchasing you must:

  1. Carefully inspect the product; Real sable fur is thick, elastic and shiny, with long pile. The skin is perfectly smooth, without the slightest bald spots or cracks, the undercoat is bluish. The color of the fur can vary: from sandy beige to chocolate brown, but in a real sable it shimmers, while a colored marten is dull.
  2. Stroke; The texture of sable fur is very dense. To check this, you need to run your hand over it quite firmly. If the hairs quickly return to their previous position, the fur is real. If it remains disheveled, then there is a high probability of a fake. You can do the same test by wetting your hand with water. There should be no lint left from real fur. Another criterion is silkiness: the guard hairs of the marten are stiffer than those of the sable.
  3. Weigh on hand; Natural sable fur, including Canadian sable, is lighter than all other types of fur. A sable coat weighs less than a fox, mink or any other coat.
  4. Feel from the inside; If you hear a rustling sound, it means that the inner layer is not soft and elastic enough, and over time, tears will appear in it.
  5. Smell; The presence of an animal smell means that the workmanship is of poor quality. A chemical aroma indicates the presence of dyes.
  6. Pinch; If you grab natural sable fur with your fingers and pull it, you should end up with no more than 5-6 hairs in your hand. A larger number is an alarming signal about a fake. Such fur will not be worn for long: bald spots will gradually appear in it.
  7. Study the labeling; It should contain all the necessary information: type of fur, country of origin, instructions for proper care of the product./
  8. Compare prices. A fur coat made from natural sable fur cannot be cheap. If the cost of a product is significantly lower than the market price, this indicates either a fake or a defect.

The overall quality of tailoring should also be assessed: the seams should be strong and even, the lining should not be stitched underneath, and the fittings should be firmly sewn and without defects.
