The secret of this fur’s warmth is its hollow structure, an attribute found in only one other species – the polar bear. With air trapped inside the fibre the fur provides sumptuous warmth, natural insulation and incredible lightness. In New Zealand this possum is also a major threat to our native wildlife – and its use in high-end fashion helps bolster our country’s conservation efforts. Possum products must not be left out in the sun. Sunlight even through a window will cause damage. The fur will fade and the hides will disintegrate. Possums are nocturnal marsupials and therefore their hides are not toughened nor conditioned for the sun.
