Dalle pelli grezze, in gran parte importate dall'Europa settentrionale e dall'Oriente, i Vaiai e Pellicciai ricavavano, attraverso la concia e le successive fasi di lavorazione, raffinati capi di abbigliamento.
questa � la frase che devo tradurre; furrier secondo me corrisponde a pellicciaio, come posso fare a tradurre sia pellicciaio che vaiaio con furrier? voi come fareste?
