mink fur

Sleek animal hide

Mink fur is the soft, dense pelt of the mink, a small semi-aquatic mammal prized for its luxurious texture and natural sheen.

Long associated with wealth and glamour, mink fur has been used primarily in coats, stoles, and trim: She inherited her mother's mink fur coat.

The fur industry farms mink extensively, which has made it a focal point of animal rights debates.
