Wellfare & Certificates
Well-being as a principle. Quality as a result.
Natural well-being. Human civilization.
Each of our creations is made according to a fundamental and essential principle: the health and well-being of the animal. High-quality fur can only come from animals that are healthy, happy, and raised in accordance with their ethological needs.
Internationally recognized certifications
We work exclusively with suppliers who follow European and internationally approved protocols.
Our main partner is SAGA FURS®, a world-leading auction house that guarantees traceability and animal welfare through advanced control systems.
