Natural Sapphire Mink Stroller, W.M. Pinkus
A rare natural cerulean (sapphire) mink stroller by W.M. Pinkus, a respected San Francisco furrier known for mid century custom workmanship. This coat is constructed from undyed sapphire mink pelts, prized for their naturally cool, silvery blue undertone. The coloration is inherent to the fur itself, not the result of dye ~ and is seldom encountered in vintage pieces preserved at this level. Cut in a classic stroller silhouette, the coat falls below the knee with a straight, balanced drape.
The shoulders are lightly structured, consistent with the periods tailoring standards, lending presence without exaggeration. The fur remains dense, supple, and luminous, with consistent tone throughout. The piece has been professionally cleaned and conditioned by our furriers and remains in excellent vintage condition. The original interior lining is in excellent condition intact and well maintained.
