A great many fur coats are made from completely different furs, since each of them has certain features that are characteristic only to him, and women are known for their desire to diversify their wardrobe.
A real piece of luxury from all the furs known to the world is marten fur, which also serves for the manufacture of fur coats.
Let us consider in more detail, why does marten fur have such wild popularity, but at the same time such a high price?
What kind of beast is a marten?
It looks pretty cute, but in essence a predatory and dangerous little animal - a marten, is one of the representatives of the ferret genus, and also belongs to the type of fingertip, four-legged predators.
The paws of the animal have five fingers that are free to move and have sharp, tenacious claws, which makes them quite functional, suitable for wood crapping, protection from predators and food extraction.
As food, martens use small rodents and rats, small birds, as well as eggs, harvested by destroying bird nests. In addition, climbing into agricultural possessions, martens often attack chickens, but without gutting the victim, but only by drinking its blood.
Since the diet of marten is full of all the necessary minerals, the hair of this animal is very soft and silky, shimmering in the sunlight and giving a different glare during the day.
Features
The main feature is that the marten fur coat can suit people even in the most terrible allergies, since the fur of this animal is hypoallergenic and will not cause discomfort and will not adversely affect the health of its owner.
In addition, the marten's fur is breathable, which also adds more functionality to it. Due to the strong ventilation properties, particles of dirt and dust do not stay in the coats of the marten.
But the fur has drawbacks - an inflated price, compared to other models of fur coats. This is due to the fact that the marten is practically not bred specifically for the manufacture of fur coats, for the most part the animal lives and breeds in the wild natural environment, which makes it a kind of difficult-to-find rarity.
Models
There are not so many models of fur coats, since the concept and idea of the product is limited by the presence of a number of specific functions: warmth, convenience, functionality. But for every girl it is also important that the fur coat looks beautiful and matches her “tastes” in clothes.
For example, fur coat with marten hooded cobra is most in demand because many girls give their preference to smooth lines and elegant style. Popular also ordinary hood, well protecting from cold and strong wind.
A rather interesting type of marten fur is the skin of a special breed of animal called stone. This type of animal is so dubbed, since it chooses for itself the destroyed stone structures left by man as its place of residence. Stone marten fur is rarely made because fur is rather tough due to the nature of the habitat.
In contrast to the stone, the pine marten is famous for its soft fluffy fur, therefore it is actively used for the manufacture of fur coats.
Pretty stylish look and combo coatscombining skins of different animals. So, for example, marten is actively combined with mink fur, making the main part of the product from the second, and any part, such as a collar, from the first.
The marten looks and feels very much like sable fur, so many manufacturers actively combine the skins of these two animals in one product.
How to choose?
Choosing a quality marten fur coat is a much more serious task than it might seem at first glance. Many low-quality manufacturers, as well as those who strive to "sniff" a fake, can sometimes confuse and confuse.
First of all, it is worth noting that natural fur martens are easily distinguished from artificial, because it is unique to the touch and not at all similar to sensations from tactile contact with synthetic nap.
Very often, sable fur coats are marketed for marten fur, since the skins of these animals are quite similar. Inexperienced eyes may not distinguish between substitutions, but experts with careful study of the pile and the undercoat immediately feel something is wrong. Therefore, it is necessary to purchase such products only in specialized stores, where manufacturers vouch for guaranteeing the quality of the product.
And, finally, it is worthwhile to carefully examine all internal and external seams, make sure that there are no small holes and scuffs, as well as no extra sticking threads.
It is worth remembering that the fur coat must be acquired in size, because otherwise the product may be little or loosely to hang out if the fur coat is large.
How much is?
More than once it has been said that the price of marten fur coats is slightly overpriced. The specific value varies in contrast to the style:
- The cost of a long marten fur coat is in the region of 500,000 rubles.
- A fur coat to the knee costs about 200,000 - 250,000 rubles.
- The shortened model has a price in the region of 150,000 rubles.
Reviews
Among the reviews regarding the fur coats of marten fur, there are not only laudatory, positive, but also negative, criticizing the overestimated cost of the product. It is understandable, because everyone wants to become the owner of a smart fur coat made of silky fur, but this model is far from affordable for everyone.
I bought a marten fur coat as a gift from my husband for a wedding anniversary. In general, the purchase is satisfied, the coat is light in weight, but very warm. We were pleased with the discounts in the store, because at the usual price I would not risk buying such an expensive product.
Husband gave a birthday coat of marten graphite color. Looks awesome. The fur coat is light and durable, I wear it with pleasure! I can’t say anything about the cost - it’s a gift, but all questions regarding this husband laugh mysteriously and laugh it off.
I bought myself a marten coat! I went for a long time and “licked” at her - a luxurious fur coat, you can't argue with that. I stopped only the high cost, but after weighing all the pros and cons, I decided that the price was fully justified and worth it!
Spectacular images
- Evening look with a royal scale, intended for a festive event in the cold season, implies the presence of a beautiful fur coat, best midi or even maxi length. Such a product is most successfully combined with an evening dress and elegant shoes with heels.
Therefore, a luxurious dark cross to the floor would be the perfect option to combine with an evening dress.
- To create an interesting, stylish image, you may need non-standard details, which, although they look beautiful, are not always functional. One of such products is a fur sleeveless jacket in a light brown color, which goes well with skinny trousers of dark shades, as well as jackets of various models.
As a shoe, you can use almost any option other than sports style.
- A fur coat made of a combination of furs of different types looks very beautiful and unusual. For example, a cross-cut model that combines wide strips of sheared marten fur and narrow - fluffy ones looks absolutely unbelievable!
This unusual product needs an equally unusual addition, so fashion critics advise to get a stylish clutch of fur of the same color.
- An image that is in no way inferior to all the others can be created with a simple set of a free cut tweed skirt, which is longer than the knee, and also a satin blouse with a long sleeve of bog shade. This combination is complemented by a stylish fur coat made of cross-cut marten fur patches, with a 3/4 sleeve.
It is worth knowing that this sleeve length implies the presence of special gloves.
- A rather light, but very stylish image in warm, beige shades, you can easily create by choosing only sand pants with a straight cut and a light white blouse. It is possible to combine all these details with rather bold leopard-colored shoes, complementing a light fur coat of medium length with a shortened sleeve.
Stylish bag and trendy sunglasses fit perfectly in the outfit.
- A fur coat made of a combination of two furs can look not only interesting and unusual, but also very beautiful and truly luxurious. The lighter transverse patches are made of fluffy marten fur, the darker parts of the sleeves and collar, having a short nap, are made of mink fur.
The length of the product only closes the buttocks, and the sleeves are shortened - 3/4, but, nevertheless, the fur coat looks great with evening dresses on the floor in a straight cut.
- Fluffy transverse fur coat shortened style, to the middle of the buttocks, made of marten fur brown and equipped with a hood - cobra. The product, although it has a short length, but, nevertheless, will be perfectly combined not only with trouser outfits.
A light gray dress case will perfectly fit into the image, provided that it is complemented by stylish black over the knee boots and a thick, steady heel.
- Another model of fur coat from marten fur, above the knee length with a standard sleeve, is also equipped with a hood - a cobra and looks truly gorgeous. The coat has a rather warm, unusual shade - milk chocolate, which makes it visually delicate and light.
The product is perfectly combined with an elegant dress to the knee, and the image as a whole requires elegant shoes with heels.
- Stylish, but completely non-functional cappuccino coat, has a short sleeve and a length that covers the buttocks. And since the product is decorative, it will be perfectly combined with many other unusual things. The bright satin overalls of a salad shade will perfectly fit into any image with this model of a fur coat.
Ankle boots with a brown tone are perfect as shoes.
