Marten fur coat
A great variety of fur coats are made from completely different furs, since each of them has certain features that are characteristic only of him, and women are known for their desire to diversify their wardrobe.
The real luxury item of all furs known to the world is marten fur, which is also used for making fur coats.
Let's take a closer look at why marten fur is so wildly popular, but at the same time such a high price?
What kind of animal is a marten?
It looks pretty cute, but in essence a predatory and dangerous animal - the marten, is one of the representatives of the genus of ferrets, and also belongs to the type of finger-walking, four-legged predators.
The paws of the animal have five fingers that can move freely and have sharp, tenacious claws, which makes them quite functional, suitable for tree climbing, protection from predators and foraging.
As food, martens use small rodents and rats, small birds, as well as eggs obtained by destroying bird nests. In addition, when climbing into agricultural holdings, martens often attack chickens, but not gutting the victim, but only drinking its blood.
Since the diet of the marten is full of all the necessary minerals, the fur of this animal is very soft and silky, shimmering in sunlight and giving off a different glare in the daytime.
Peculiarities
The main feature is that a marten fur coat can suit people even with the worst allergies, since the fur of this animal is hypoallergenic and will not cause discomfort and will not have a detrimental effect on the health of its owner.
In addition, the marten fur is breathable, which also makes it more functional.Due to its strong ventilation properties, dirt and dust particles do not linger in the villi of a marten fur coat.
But fur also has disadvantages - an overpriced 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 reproduces in a wild natural environment, which makes it a kind of hard-to-get 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, model of a marten fur coat with a cobra hood is in the greatest demand, as many girls give their preference to flowing lines and graceful cut. Popular also regular hoodwhich protects well from cold and strong winds.
A rather interesting variety of marten fur is skin of a special breed of animal, called stone... This type of animal was so dubbed, since it chooses for itself the destroyed stone structures left by man as a place of residence. A stone marten fur coat is rarely made, because due to the peculiarities of the habitat, the fur is rather tough.
Unlike the stone marten, the pine marten is famous for its soft fluffy fur, therefore it is he who is actively used for the manufacture of fur coats.
Look pretty stylish and combined fur 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 some detail, 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. A lot of low-quality manufacturers, as well as those who strive to "sniff" a fake, can sometimes be confusing and confusing.
First of all, it should be noted that natural marten fur is easy to distinguish from artificial one, since it is unique to the touch and does not at all resemble the sensations from tactile contact with synthetic hair.
Very often sable coats are passed off as products made from marten fur, since the skins of these animals are quite similar. An inexperienced eye may not distinguish between substitutions, but experts, upon a careful study of the pile and undercoat, will immediately sense that something was wrong. Therefore, it is worth purchasing such products only in specialized stores, where manufacturers vouch for a product quality guarantee.
And finally, it is worth carefully examining all the internal and external seams, make sure that there are no small holes and scuffs, and there are no extra protruding threads.
It is also worth remembering that the fur coat must be purchased in size to size, because otherwise the product may be small or shapelessly dangling if the fur coat is large.
What is the price?
It has been said more than once that the price of marten fur coats is slightly overestimated. The specific cost varies in contrast to the style:
- The cost of a long marten fur coat is in the region of 500,000 rubles.
- A knee-length fur coat costs about 200,000 - 250,000 rubles.
- The shortened model has a price of around 150,000 rubles.

I got a marten fur coat as a gift from my husband for a wedding anniversary. In general, I am satisfied with the purchase, 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 dare to buy such an expensive product.
My husband gave me a graphite-colored marten fur coat for his birthday. Looks awesome. The fur coat is light and durable, I wear it with pleasure! At the expense of the cost, I can not say anything - this is a gift, but the husband mysteriously laughs and jokes about all the questions regarding this.
I bought myself a marten fur coat! She walked for a long time and "licked" at her - a luxurious fur coat, you can't argue with that. Stopped only by the high cost, but after weighing all the pros and cons, I decided that the price is fully justified and worth it!

- Another model of a marten fur coat, above the knee length with a standard sleeve, is also equipped with a cobra hood and looks truly gorgeous. The coat has a rather warm, unusual shade - milk chocolate, which makes it visually delicate and light.
