Fur
Service Burtrum
Furs, the friendly owned family business,
will provide full service for your furs and
fine outerwear. Storage is a must for your furs, leathers,
cashmeres, shearlings, and wool, and we offer a variety of storage
plans to fit your lifestyle. Summer storage is our most
popular plan, but we also offer yearly and three year
storage contracts as well. Burtrums not only cleans furs
but, fur trimmed items, leathers, suedes, shearlings, and faux
furs. All of our fur cleaning is done in house
while our leathers, suedes, and shearlings are done by
New York's most experienced
leather cleaner. Burtrums can also make
available rewhitening, an elaborate process which removes the
oxidation (yellowing) out of light colored
furs.
Burtrums has its
own in house master furriers and seamstresses to handle any fur or
outerwear repair you may need. We do everything from fixing
loose linings and replacing hooks to repairing large rips and
remodeling coats. The workroom is on premises and
we also offer monograms, tab initials, hat stretching, and removal
of old monograms. We can fix or replace zippers,
shorten sleeves and hems and do new
linings in furs or other fine outerwear.
Burtrums can help
you decide what to do with your older fur garment. You may
trade it towards a new purchase or remodel your fur if the skins
are in good condition. Another service we provide is selling
your fur on consignment with our trade ins. A brand new service is
Burtrums can now sell you coat on EBay . A final suggestion
is donating the item and writing it off your taxes. In most
cases you will need to obtain an apprasial for your tax records
which Burtrums can provide for a small fee. We also do
apprasials for new purchases bought somewhere else and for the
occasional insurance update.
