Cabaret (Sally Bowles) - What Kind of Fur was that coat made from?

Cafe Society

In Cabaret, Sally Bowles gets a fur coat from rich Max. The collar looks like …racoon? the rest of the coat is shortish, silvery gray and…black? I have been looking at it in that movie for years and can’t put my finger on it.

Too long for wolf. Maybe fox?

Or monkey? Monkey fur coats were a “thing” in the 20s.

The collar looks like sable, it’s quite long-haired and uniform like that…

The body, it’s harder to say. Possibly mink, possible chinchilla, possibly rabbit, possibly squirrel. Some smaller animal, and not raccoon or beaver by the look of how it’s pieced.

I thought chinchilla, but they are so small, their little pelts such uniform sad little silvery grey puffs all in endless rows. It’s so hard to identify, I think rabbit or squirrel is not ‘expensive’ enough with a big sable collar

Yes, good picture. But whatever that fur is, I’m sure it was expensive. Chinchilla?
