Like taxidermy, the fur trade treats the leather processing in order to preserve them over time.The purposes of this conservation are many.The main purpose that I will describe is always that of study.Another purpose is the ornamental use such as carpets and furs for clothing.In this book I will discuss the methods and techniques of tanning at the amateur level.The difference in processing in leather for taxidermy and fur, consists of two fundamental factors.In taxidermy the skin of the animals must be kept soft from the exit from the tanning and throughout the assembly process.Subsequently, with the drying of the specimen, the skin stiffens, favoring the stability of the specimen in the established position.

In fur instead, the skin will have to remain soft even after drying.This book was written in simple language to be accessible to everyone.Attached to the writing of this book there are 26 films for a total duration of 92 minutes.Please note: there may be grammatical errors given my poor command with foreign languages (original language: Italian).
