Siatista of fur

Fur elaboration is and was always -since we have information about the town's economical life- one of the main occupations of the Siatistians in the mothertown  and in other countries as well.

It is a professional field for which the old fur makers were saying: "fur may be sick but never dies" describing in this way perfectly the financial crisis of the field through time.

The elaboration and the commerce are adjusted to the time requirements. The photos of this picture are characteristic: a laboratory of the 50', a visit of a minister to another laboratory of the 60', and a contemporary exhibition place to BIO. PA of Siatista, with an obvious inclination for adjusting the clothes according to the fashion demands.

In the town there are a lot of small labs for elaborating fur (home handicrafts) as well as industries and commercial shops for clothes and fur accessories.
