Authentic Fur Craftsmanship From The Heart Of Siatista and Kastoria

In a world of fast fashion and trends that disappear after a few weeks, we are the ones standing still. But stillness does not mean stagnation. It means staying true to our inheritance.

To truly understand the quality of a Skandinavik Fur coat, you first have to understand where it comes from and how it’s made. My name is Simon, and I lead a business that operates in Siatista, Greece. In this town, fur is the only identity. For more than 200 years, Siatista has been the beating heart of the Greek fur industry, with over 70% of the local population engaged in this trade. Artisans here don’t just learn the craft; they inherit it from their parents.

Our Story

My own journey began long before the internet, fast-fashion, or electric cars existed. My grandfather was the one who established our family as reputable furriers in the mid-1950s. The country was going through a production boom, and his business instincts, combined with his experience and dedication, turned a small fur business into a household name for people seeking top-tier fur products. Since this was before social media and paid ads, my grandfather had to build a name for himself the old-fashioned way: through word of mouth.

In 2008, I decided to take the family legacy online under the name Skandinavik Fur, expanding to a full global web presence in 2012. While the technology has changed, our philosophy has not. We have used technology to open the doors of our local workshop to the rest of the world.

We Do Not Use Factory Lines, We Use Specialists

Treating fur production like an assembly line, where one worker sews everything, is a common practice among modern retailers. But we disagree. Fur is an organic material, and every type requires a vastly different approach. We do not believe in “Jacks-of-all-trades”. A tight-knit network of master artisans is the secret behind our success. These are men and women who have spent decades specializing in one specific fur type.

That is why we can guarantee that when you order a Mink coat from us, it is cut and sewn by a master of Mink. If you order a Sable garment, it is handled by a specialist who understands exactly how Sable drapes and flows. Understanding the intricate details of each product and design is the key ingredient that ensures a perfect fit, every single time. This hyper-specialization is rare, but it’s the only way to ensure that your garment is truly timeless.

A Virtual Atelier For A Bespoke Experience

We are aware that buying a luxury fur coat online can feel overwhelming. Fit, color, and texture cannot be perceived through an image. That is why we have created a “Make Your Own” service that removes all the guesswork and doubt. Whatever your inspiration might be, a photo, a sketch, or a brief description, our artisans can turn your idea into a bespoke creation. You become part of the design process through video calls, email consultations, and chat sessions with our specialists, so you can see the skins before they are cut and discuss the measurements. Whether you are in London, Moscow, or New York, you can create your own custom fur coat without any geographic limitations.
