Cream Possum Fur Blanket

Cream is the lightest colour possible for possum fur. It is a warm buttery cream colour sometimes with light chestnut tips which makes it look like a cream fox fur.

Cream is the lightest fur colour available in possum fur. It is a lovely rich light true cream, sometimes you can see the darker guard hairs as a soft tan which makes it look like a cream fox fur. 

This comes with a lovely cream velvet textured fabric backing which stops the throw from slipping off your bed. The velvet fabric backing is the closest match we can find to compliment the fur colour and is cream.

Our possum furs are tanned in New Zealand. If a spill happens try to sponge off the spill without getting any water onto the leather under the fur.

These premium quality possum fur throws are made to order in New Zealand - allow 8-12 weeks. 

You cannot wash possum fur but you can dry-clean very successfully by a specialist fur cleaner.

New Zealand Possum fur is an incredibly silky soft, plush, warm, lightweight and luxurious natural product. In fact they say it is the third warmest fur in the world after polar bear and Arctic fox because of its hollow hair structure that traps warmth like a thermos.

And just like polar bear hair, it is the hallow hair structure that does not allow possum fur to freeze, even when exposed to extreme cold.

Possum fur is said to be 14% lighter and 8% warmer than wool. So we should all be curled up under a possum fur blanket keeping warm this winter.

New Zealand possum fur is considered durable so if it is well looked after and correctly cleaned and stored when not in use it can last up to 10 years or longer.
