10 EASY-CARE TIPS TO HELP PROTECT YOUR FUR Hang your fur on a broad-shouldered hanger, never on a wire hanger. Give your fur enough room in the closet so it is not crushed and may breathe properly. Never hang your fur in a plastic or rubber-lined bag. This prevents air from circulating and may dry out the leather. When travelling, store your fur in a cloth garment bag provided by your furrier. Refrain from using handbags with shoulder straps or pinning jewelry to your fur. Avoid spraying perfume or hairspray onto your fur. Never use any store cleaning solutions or disinfecting agent on your fur. Never attempt to insect-proof your fur yourself. Home treatments are no substitute for professional cleaning and storage. Have small rips or tears repaired immediately by your furrier. This will prevent more expensive repairs later. Try to avoid exposing your fur to excess light for long periods. This can cause the fur to oxidize or change color. If your fur gets wet, shake off excess water and allow it to dry naturally in a well ventilated room. Keep it away from direct heat [ex. radiators, blowdryers, etc]. After it dries, shake well on hanger to restore fluffiness of the fur. Never attempt to comb or brush your fur. NOTE : As most furs can handle light rain or snow, if they become saturated or soaked completely through, immediately take it to your furrier for proper treatment. During the warm weather season, always store your fur with your furrier [not your local dry cleaner]. Your furrier is equipped with temperature, humidity, and light controlled storage facilities to protect your fur. Having your fur cleaned annually by a fur specialist will maximize the loveliness and natural beauty of it.
