One thing to look at also as a source is a second hand store or Salvation army clothing area. I have found some old mink or beaver coats there that make great costume additions. I have a beaver coat that looks just like mink. It's soft and delicate but extremely sturdy! It doesn't shed much either. It is an awful coat by the cut of it but the fabric/leather/fur is the reason I bought it...to use as something else. A fur cape maybe one day.

Re: [h-cost] Rabbit - was: What kind of fur would you use for this?** NOT BUN!
Someone told me that rabbit (and cat) are one of the few furs that sheds I used rabbit(s) for a cape over my Arthurian cavalry armour many years back (I figure they did not just kill dragons) and it is still in one piece, no shedding. Tanning quality perhaps? I dunno but after 15 years I am still able to handle it roughly, -C. PS: Maybe it was a Python rabbit?

Re: [h-cost] Rabbit - was: What kind of fur would you use for this?** NOT BUN!
wear a rabbit coat and it will look like a snow storm when you take it off.God help you if you shake it. In fact Miss Manners in the 1950/60 had a reminder bulliten out at prom time telling young ladies NOT to wear bunny fur wraps to prom or Cotillion,as they would shed all over the dark ROTC boys dress uniforms and make a terrible mess. Right now I'm all for very nice,expensive faux furjust NO DRYERS please.(Had a very soft,shineymink spread ,which after a trip thru the hot dryer,now resembles Buffalo hide.)

I had a look with the zoom feature- you can almost see the links in the necklace and the stitches in that 4-layer head veil, but the fur is curiously fuzzy- I would think a pale type of beaver? Or if you could lay your hands on actual german angora bunny pelts, that might be a close approximation without the expense of winter weasel fur(with or without tails) Just my .02 Lira, Betsy ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

I've been following the thread with interest. And thanks Melody for the warning about hot dryers and faux fur, as I have some that is soft and very thin, and I don't want to destroy it. I think air drying sounds good.
