furrier

Meanings

1. 1
   noun

   a person who prepares, makes, repairs, or sells garments and other goods made of fur

   The furrier inspected the pelts before cutting them for the coat.

From Middle English forreour, through Old French forms meaning a dealer or worker in fur, from forre, 'fur lining.' The occupational noun is historically distinct in sense from furrier, the comparative of furry, even though modern spelling makes them identical.
