I am lucky to be selling this fantastic squirrel fur wrap alongwith tw beautiful fox fur toles. All three are in beautiful condition.I bought them from a lovely gentleman who had a wonderful story to tell about the items. They were all three bought by his great aunts from the department store Owen Owen in Liverpool (the flagship store of this chain). The scarves/stoles were expensive when bought and are amazingly still in their original boxes. He guesses that they were bought in the late 40’s. The two ladies both have their own interesting story. During world war two they both worked as nurses to those injured by the war, and after their retirement they moved to Wales where they lived out heir days. In Wales they continued to wear their beautiful fur stoles as a memory of the past, kept for special occasions.The undersides of this stole is satin. The stole is in pretty much mint condition as ar as i can tell. He told me this si red squirrel, but it may well be a differet fur i am just going on his assumption. I have a feeling this one may be earlier than the other two, possibly more likely 30s rather than 40's. These three piece were all obviously loved by the two ladies who owned them, bought in a period when fur was still acceptable they are a fantastic memento of times past.Please note whilst the other two stoles i have are boxed read more
