Hi and welcome to the forum!

May I ask what it is - a collar? It's a bit hard to see in your photos.

It is a collar - its lined in fabric on back so i cant see whats behind material

any idea of what material?

Looks like leopard to me but not sure if it’s leopard print or actual leopard fur. Hopefully one of the fur experts stops by

I concur - I am not a fur specialist either, so it's hard to say if it's the real thing or a print. You might also have a look at our Fur Resource: https://vintagefashionguild.org/fur-resource/

Can anyone refer me to a fur specialist? Anyone on this site?
