Looking to beat the chill? Check out this selection of furs due to go under the hammer at an Artcurial Paris sale on February 26 that is also dedicated to haute couture, ready-to-wear and accessories. The auction will take place at the Hôtel Drouot.
The pick is eclectic, with among the top lots a striking cape in tricolor mink by Frédéric Castet for Christian Dior, decorated with a geometric motif (est. 500-600 euros), and an unusual Bargouzin mink jacket by G.R. Fischelis (est. 4,000-6,000 euros) where wavy lines of fur flow from the collar right down the front.
A rich Canadian Lynx by Rebecca exudes après-ski chic, while after-dark options include a circa 1980/1985 fox bolero by Jean-Louis Scherrer (est. 200-300 euros). Among the less classic styles is an unusual design in pastel mink by Herta Lorenz (est. 100-150 euros) with a checkerboard surface.
For those looking for accents of fur, check out the navy wool coat by Yves Saint Laurent trimmed mink cuffs and collar (est. 150-200 euros).
