There are a few different types of sables, but the most common is the black sable. They have luxuriously soft, shiny fur that ranges in color from black to dark brown. They’re often called “the caviar of coats” because of their high price tag and luxurious texture. Other types of sables include the blue sable (a mix of black and blue hair), the light sable (a mix of brown and blond hair), and the red sable (a mix of red and brown hair). All types of sables are considered very rare and valuable.
