The Virtues of Fur - And Why It Should Be Here To Stay
In this Spectrum television interview on Channel 1, David Appel shares his opinions on AB 44: a new law that would ban the sale of some new furs in California. Appel points out that faux fur is bad for the planet - it is a petroleum by-product, and it is not recyclable and not biodegradable. Real fur can be remade and remodeled and reused for 60-70 years after it was created. This means that real fur is sustainable, and real fur should be here to stay because it is much better for the environment. In the email below sent to his customers, David Appel explains more about the law:
Dear customers and friends,
I've found that there isn't a lot of clarity in regards to the fur law, AB-44, set to start January 1st, 2023.
So the question is... Is it legal to sell new fur in California?
The answer is YES and NO.
It will remain legal to sell the following new furs:
It is legal to sell Vintage/Pre-owned furs
It is legal to wear furs.
It is legal to Remodel, Alter, Repair, Clean, and Store furs.
The fact is, this law will have minimal effect on my business and I will still be here to serve you.
In addition, there is currently a case being filed to reverse this law, and based on past rulings these restrictions will likely be short lived.
For more information, please refer to the actual law at

Thank you for your patronage.
Sincerely yours,
David Appel
