About this work
The pelt of Karakul lambs stays curly for only a few days after birth. To obtain astrakhan fur the lambs therefore have to be slaughtered while they are still very young. This coat was made by the Splitter frères fur goods firm, which altered their ready-to-wear coats to their clients' own measurements.
