Beaver Pelts All of our beaver pelts come from Canada where they are trapped by professionals due to a real problem of over population. The pelts are then tanned the traditional way. They are mounted on a hoop and stretched so when finished they come to us in a round/oval shape. They can be quite large and to get them around 30" long by 30" wide is certainly not uncommon. Very nice thick under fur/wool with longer guard hairs make the beaver pelt one of the most sought after pelts available. Traditionly they would have been used for felt making as part of the hat making process as far back as the 11thC. Top hats are still made from beaver felt today. £ individually priced, please ask for prices.   Our Products Ethical Policy Enquiry Form Events
