Beautiful Vintage Mink Coat (Mink) – Maison Mengedé Heerlen – In Exceptional Mint Condition More photos available. Home fitting is possible (Epe area, between Zwolle and Apeldoorn) Are you looking for a timeless piece of craftsmanship and luxury? This beautiful short mink coat (jacket style) comes from the renowned fashion house Maison Mengedé Th. in Heerlen. For decades, this studio was known as the specialist in furs and haute couture in the upper segment. The coat is in truly unique condition; it looks as if it left the studio yesterday. The leather is silky soft and supple (completely silent when moved), and the fur has a beautiful, deep sheen. Specifications: • Animal species: High-quality mink, woven in beautiful vertical stripes. Fit: The jacket fits comfortably oversized for a size 38/40, and beautifully fitted and chic for a size 42/44. Color: Deep brown with natural nuances and a silky sheen. Model: Elegant short jacket, very fashionable and comfortable. Time period: 1960s/70s – a classic piece of Dutch fashion history. Details: Luxurious jacquard-woven lining (acetate satin) with woven floral motifs and delicate embroidery. Refined finish with a pleated ruffled edge along the inside. Equipped with original, luxurious fur clips (closures) in perfect condition. Condition: Exceptional vintage condition. No odors, no worn spots, and no damage to the lining or leather. Historical Value & Context At the time of production (1960s/70s), this coat was a significant investment and a definite status symbol. • New value at the time: The estimated retail price at the time was between ƒ3,500 and ƒ7,000. • Social context: For example, this amount was equivalent to approximately three to five full months' salaries at the time. It was an item for the wealthy elite. • Current value (purchasing power): Translated into current economic standards and purchasing power, such a coat today represents a value of approximately €7,000 to €12,000. Replacement value for insurance: If you wish to include this coat in a valuables insurance policy, you should consider the current replacement value of a comparable handmade mink item from a specialized workshop. Given its exceptional condition, craftsmanship, and provenance, the replacement value (estimated based on current retail prices for new high-end fur) is estimated at: €8,500 to €13,000
