Astrakan Astrakhan Coats Cuffs Debonair Lining Plume Skate Skating Warm 1907
EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in a moment of blissful joy and elegance, this early 1900s photograph depicts a young and debonair couple gracefully gliding on an icy winter skating rink. The woman, dressed in a stunning astrakhan fur coat, her fur trimmed with a plush bow at the neckline, exudes an air of sophistication and warmth. Her coat, made from the fine, thick wool undercoat of the Caspian Sea seal, was a status symbol of the time, synonymous with luxury and opulence. The man, equally dapper, complements her in a coat with a fur collar and cuffs, likely featuring a lining of the same luxurious fur. The snow-covered landscape and the playful expressions on their faces add to the enchanting scene. The couple's joyful connection, the crisp winter air, and the warmth of their fur coats create a timeless image of love and happiness. This photograph, taken around 1907, is a beautiful reminder of the allure and charm of a bygone era.
