A Mink Coat That Russians Can't Live Without.

Long leather boots, with naked legs, are the sexiest costumes of Moscow's fashionable ladies in winter.

In this cold country, this requires not only great courage and perseverance, but also a high price.

In Russia, fur clothing is the third major demand after housing and automobiles.

People can eat without food, but they can't have no mink. "It sounds exaggerated, but it reflects the Russian's love for mink garments.

Zhu Xiaolin, a coordinator of the International Fur Association and China Representative Office, told reporters that as a large country of fur consumption, Russia imported gross fur from China in 2014 to a total value of 2 billion 370 million US dollars, accounting for nearly 70% of Russia's gross fur imports.

A fur can be sold at forty thousand or fifty thousand yuan and hundreds of thousands of yuan.

At a Russian fur auction in St Petersburg, a sable sells for up to 10 thousand euros.

Note that this is just a price for mink, not a price for mink coat, and dozens of sheets for a mink coat.

From the quality, appearance and rarity, sable has to win over other fur.

The unique sable of Siberia is unique to Russia.

The sable's color is brown and silver-colored, and the silver-colored needle hair is the best. "Every feather is shiny," which is the favorite of Russians.

Identifying the quality of mink mainly depends on the gloss, length, fuzziness and smoothness of the hair.

When Russians buy fur, the most commonly used method is to take mink clothes and blow the mink hair to see if they are exposed.

According to historical records, in seventeenth Century, mink is to some extent equivalent to gold reserves.

Russia has the most resources of sable, and its annual output is about 150 thousand, accounting for 95% of the world's total.

Although fur is the label of Russian upper class, Russians have always been wearing fur tradition, but more and more animal rights activists are opposed to killing animals to get fur products in different ways.
