Hi,

Would someone be able to help me dating this capelet and the type of fur?

Thank you!

Hi there,

It’s muskrat and could also be referred to as a stole and cape. Nice one.

Hi Caryn,

Any idea about the decade?

Thank you so much for your help!

Sure. It dates to the late 40s to early 50s. If you show me the lining I might be able to narrow down which side it is for you.

Hi Caryn,

Sure, I'm attaching pictures of the lining. Feels like rayon to me...

Perfect! Thank you. Late 40s.
