Perhaps the best way to determine if the mink coat is genuine is to look under the lining at the backside of the assembled pelts. The underside of a mink pelt should have a suede-like feel and the pattern used to sew the pelts together should be obvious.

A real mink coat will also have two linings, a satin lining and an inner wool or flannel lining that adds to the coat's warmth. Faux fur coats will usually only have one lining.

By the person who is wearing it, or any other fur that belongs on a living creature.

Long ago man had no choice but to kill to keep warm, though usually the meat was eaten too and tools made from the bones.

Fur IS beautiful, but fake is excellent quality... otherwise why would you be asking the question?
