Tanuki Fur Transformed into a Lovely Throw

Loved this Coat!

This was a full length Tanuki Fur Coat. I loved working with this rich and lovely fur. I used the original lining and labels. Final Throw Size: 48 by 50

A tanuki's fur is thick and soft with long black guard hairs atop a medium-brown undercoat. They have a black-tipped bushy tail, and short, rounded ears. Tanuki's are often referred to as a "racoon dog", but they are not related to racoons.
