Edwards-Lowell
Professional Fur Cleaning in Los Angeles
Luxury furs require expert handling to maintain their natural softness, structure, and shine. At Edwards-Lowell, we provide in-house fur cleaning services in Los Angeles, using proprietary methods developed and refined over decades. Whether you’re maintaining a treasured family piece or preparing seasonal outerwear for storage, our team ensures your garments are cleaned, conditioned, and preserved with expert care.
All services are performed on-site — never outsourced — for total quality control and accountability.
The Importance of Proper Fur Cleaning
Fur is a natural material that accumulates dust, oil, and environmental pollutants over time. Left untreated, these elements cause fur to dry out, lose luster, and deteriorate prematurely. Annual cleaning is critical to maintaining your garment’s softness, color, and structure.
Our process addresses:
- Dust and odor removal
- Stain lifting from both fur and lining
- Restoration of natural oils
- Conditioning of the hide to prevent stiffness
- Glazing to revive original sheen and softness
We do not use water-based methods or commercial dry cleaning techniques. Each garment is cleaned using techniques specifically tailored to its material, age, and condition.
Cleaning Services for More Than Just Fur
Our expertise extends to a variety of luxury outerwear and specialty garments. In addition to fur coats, we clean:
- Shearling coats and vests
- Leather jackets
- Wool and fur-trimmed coats
- Raincoats and specialty fabrics
- Vintage pieces requiring delicate handling
If you’re unsure whether your garment qualifies, our team will provide a free in-person inspection and consultation before any service is performed.
Our Proven Cleaning Process
Every cleaning at Edwards-Lowell follows a careful multi-step protocol:
- Initial Inspection
We assess the garment’s condition, identify damage, check for stains, and determine if repairs are needed before cleaning. - Stain Removal and Lining Care
Linings are cleaned separately to address body oils, makeup, and other common contaminants. - Oils and Conditioning Treatment
We restore essential oils to the fur to prevent drying and cracking. - Professional Glazing
Our glazing process revives shine, smooths the fur, and restores a soft, luxurious finish. - Final Inspection
Before release, every garment is checked for quality and cleanliness by our in-house specialists.
This approach has served our Beverly Hills and Los Angeles clients for generations — including celebrities, stylists, collectors, and longtime private clients.
Restoration and Preventive Care Options
Many clients pair cleaning with repairs or minor restyling. If we find wear, seam issues, or signs of aging, we’ll inform you during the inspection and provide a complimentary estimate.
Optional add-ons include:
- Repair of loose seams or hooks
- Lining reinforcement or replacement
- Collar and cuff reconditioning
- Restyling or shortening of dated silhouettes
By pairing maintenance with restoration, you extend the lifespan of your garment and prevent more expensive repairs in the future.
Can We Clean Items Purchased Elsewhere? Yes.
We gladly clean and condition garments that were not purchased from Edwards-Lowell. Whether you acquired your fur at auction, inherited it from family, or purchased it from another retailer, we’re happy to provide care and service.
No appointment is required for an inspection, but we recommend calling ahead during peak seasons for faster turnaround.
