History
Established in 1984.
Albe Furs & Outerwear was founded in 1984 by Leon Skolnik and Ben Berman, two fourth-generation furriers who learned their trade as young men in Russia. After working for top designers in New York City, Leon and Ben opened their own design studio and retail boutique in Westport, CT over 30 years ago. Great success led to opening a second location in Greenwich, CT, where the partners have drawn the expertise of fellow furriers Felix Skolnik and George Lotkin, and talented pattern-maker and finisher, Venera Lane.
