For your attention today is a beautiful genuine broadtail/lamb
short jacket with a real mink fur collar in a sea pearl/blonde/creamy-off white
colour. It was made for a special order by Fung u. Heidt furriers in the 60’s
and it is still in great vintage condition. The broadtail is the most
expensive from all lambs and the price for a good quality broadtail is not
cheaper than a quality mink fur. It is very lightweight, looks beautiful and
feels just like silk.
The jacket has a neatly shaped real mink fur lapelled collar that compliments
the broadtail lamb skins perfectly,
full length sleeves, an internal pocket for your
lady’s oddments and fastens with two
hook and eye closures. It is lined in a pearl silky fabric and the lining is in
very good vintage condition also, all intact and it has not been monogrammed. There is a slight specific real
lamb's smell on the jacket but it is free from any unpleasant/musty odours.
The mink fur collar is in excellent vintage condition, soft and dense.
The broadtail/lamb is in good vintage condition with only a minor amount of
natural aging and general wear but without any damage, might benefit from the usual
type of fur clean. The skins are still pliable with a pleasant to the eye
glossy sheen and it is very lightweight.
This is a really luxurious vintage
item that will add that bit of extra charm to your outfit and will
make a big difference to the finished look for your special occasion. A
beautifully fitting item that exudes celebrity style and elegance! The jacket cost a small fortune when it was new but our auction starts with low price and no reserve. Enjoy your bargain!
Also I would like to mention that most of the vintage coats were
designed and hand crafted by the furriers, therefore each of them is quite
unique and no two will be exactly the same.
As nearly all vintage fur coats
were made to special orders by set individual measurements then it is really
difficult to specify a standard size. You can see how this jacket looks on the
mannequin (5’10” or 179 cm and approximately a UK size 8). We think that the jacket should fit comfortably from a UK large size 12 to a small size 16 but please check the approximate measurements given below:
Underarm to underarm = 22.5" or 57 cm
Length from shoulder to hem = 23" or 58 cm
Underarm to cuff = 15.5" or
39 cm
Across the
shoulders is about 16.5" or 42 cm
Along the hem = 49” or
125 cm
The jacket weighs 705 grams (without packaging).
