*From Wikipedia*

*
*

*Zibeline* is a thick, soft fabric http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloth with
a long nap http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nap_%28textile%29. It is usually
made of wool http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wool, such as
mohairhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohairor
alpaca http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpaca, but can also be made from the
hair of other animals, such as camels http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel.

Zibeline can also refer to either the sablehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sable(
*Martes zibellina*) or its pelt, which zibeline was originally made from.

This site has an advantage that it's in many languages - a good thing if you 
need to translate some textile term:-)
