Diane X-Large mittens recycled raccoon fur Italian leather handmade Quebec

Natural recycled raccoon, brown Italian leather with red topstitching and a strong character 🤎 A unique ArtAbaska piece that catches the eye.

The Diane mittens are available in X-Large size and required 8.5 hours of handcrafting time.
This is a unique piece – only one pair available.

🐾 Materials and Construction

The back of the hand is made of recycled, natural, dense raccoon fur with rich golden-brown nuances. A vibrant, warm, and deeply elegant fur.

The thumb is made of recycled brown shaved sheepskin, soft to the touch, perfectly harmonized with the raccoon's shade.

The palm, the top of the forearm, the bottom of the forearm, and the bottom of the thumb are made of recycled brown Italian leather, sourced from scraps from high-end shoe factories. Red topstitching enhances the whole with intensity and personality 🔥. Look at the photos to appreciate the depth of the leather and the precision of the finishes.

🧠 History and Memory

This recycled raccoon fur comes from a coat proudly worn on special occasions. Today, the precious material is reborn in a new form. This is not just a mitten: it is a memory transformed into a sustainable work of art.

👀 Gaze and Admiration

Get ready to capture attention. The Diane mittens naturally attract gazes. People will stop you to ask where they come from… and when you explain that they are made from recycled fur, the admiration will be even greater. It's a pride that goes beyond a coat or a pair of boots: it's wearing a unique creation.

🔥 Exceptional Comfort

The interior is made of felt, ultra-soft synthetic sheepskin, and nylon.
Very light, breathable, and comfortable, it does not cause sweaty hands. It slides on easily, is put on effortlessly, and remains pleasant even during prolonged use.
It is machine washable and dryable for simple maintenance.

🧤 Perfect Fit

The outer mitten features a tightening strap at the wrist and a self-tightening cord at the forearm, for optimal support and effective protection against cold air.

📜 A certificate of authenticity accompanies the pair, attesting to the responsible origin of the recycled furs.
🎁 A free ArtAbaska embroidered carrying bag (value $35) is included for transport and storage.

The Diane mittens are a true ArtAbaska work — warm, elegant, and deeply unique.

IMPORTANT NOTE: recycled materials ♻️
All my creations are made from carefully selected recycled materials. Due to their previous history, it is POSSIBLE that some leathers or furs may show slight signs of time (e.g., small crack, texture variation, or micro-imperfection).
Rest assured that if an item leaves my workshop, these particularities are strictly aesthetic and in no way affect the use, strength, durability, or function of the product. Each piece is carefully inspected to guarantee a reliable, functional, and long-lasting product.
