Double Silver Fox Fur Stole Glam Flawed As-Is Weisser VFG
This vintage silver fox fur pelt stole dates to the 1920s or 1930s. It presents beautifully, but has a flaw and is being sold As Is - price reflects condition. See Condition Report for full details. There are two silver fox fur pelts joined near the heads by the small satin backing that includes the furrier's tag.. The pelts are also joined at the middle of the upper inner legs - the other legs dangle freely.
FUR: Lush silky silver fox fur with soft dense underfur.
SIZE:
Each pelt measures 47" from tip of nose to tip of tail, and 6 - 7" wide.
TAGS: Furs by Weisser, San Francisco
CLOSURES: N/A. The stole can be draped in several different ways. There are two pairs of satin arm-loops on the inner side to make it easier to manage. One arm-loop has a monogram MK.
CONDITION: The tail of one of the foxes is nearly detached - see closeup. I picture a mischievous child tugging hard on one end of mama's fox fur! There is a strand of thread there that is holding the two parts in place - I think a former owner tried to do a repair and ran into problems. I decided not to attempt further intervention - you may have access to a resolution. Everything else looks good - the fur does not shed with a gentle pull, all of the fox feet look intact, there is minimal wear to the fur overall.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
