Fur garments are unique pieces that deserve special care to preserve their beauty and longevity. Here you'll find practical tips to keep your garments in perfect condition.
Cleaning Tips
- For the cleaning of mink, astrakhan, merino lamb, shearling, fox, leather, and suede garments, always consult a fur cleaning expert.
- Never attempt to clean fur garments yourself, as this could make stains permanent.
- Do not put your fur items in the washing machine—this will cause irreversible damage. Take them to a professional furrier as soon as possible.
- We recommend professional cleaning every 2–3 years.
At Ramiro Guardiola, we offer professional cleaning services for all types of fur, leather, and suede garments, providing our clients with the highest level of care and assurance.
Storage Tips
- Always store your coats, stoles, and other fur garments with enough space—leave at least 5 cm between each piece to avoid pressure or deformation.
- Make sure the closet where you store your fur garments is not near any heating pipes, as prolonged heat exposure can damage and distort the fur.
- During the summer months, we recommend storing your fur in a professional cold storage facility where temperature, lighting, and humidity are kept at optimal levels for long-term preservation.
- Use a hanger that matches the shoulder width of the garment to avoid stretching or pulling the fur.
- Never store your fur coats in plastic garment bags. Use breathable fabric covers or leave them uncovered so the fur can breathe.
- Place moth repellents in your closet—we recommend Polil or Orion brand products.
At Ramiro Guardiola, we always provide a suitable hanger with each purchase to help preserve your garment.
