About MeSilver fox fur wrap or stole made from the entire animal, including the head, feet and tail. There is a bakelite clip underneath the head to allow the wrap to be attached to the tail or another garment.

Up until the last quarter of the 20th century, when people began to object to the use of animal materials in fashion, ladies could be seen dressed from head to toe in sumptuous furs. In many cases the entire animal, including the tail, feet and head were used to decorative effect.
