    Hello,

    I inherited two vintage fur coats from my mom. I believe one was actually my grandmothers. I would love to know what fur they are and any other information you are might know about. I'm clueless when it comes to furs. The first one (1st 4 pics) is a Stephen Burrows so I assume it is circa the 70s. The other (last 4 pics) looks to be newer? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Liz

    Hi there,

    The first is mink and I would date it to the 70s and the second is phantom sheared beaver. The lining looks like a 60s lining but I only see a small portion of that. The large shoulder pads, sleeve style, and the buttons on the coat itself are fitting of the 80s.
