Exquisite authentic vintage genuine mink fur cape, dating to approximately the late 1950s–early 1960s.
A beautiful Mid-Century evening cape crafted from exceptionally elegant pale blonde/champagne mink, featuring a soft natural sheen and luxurious dense underfur.
Unlike a simple narrow fur stole, this piece has a beautifully structured capelet silhouette that drapes generously over the shoulders and upper arms, creating the glamorous sculptural shape associated with luxury evening furs of the late 1950s and early 1960s.
The warm champagne-beige coloration is particularly sophisticated and remarkably versatile, pairing beautifully with black eveningwear, neutral tailoring, bridal styling, or a modern minimalist wardrobe.
Inside is the original coordinating champagne satin lining with an elegant embroidered personalization reading “Rose J Polito,” believed to be the name of the original owner rather than the manufacturer — a wonderful surviving detail of the garment's history.
The cape also retains its original Fur Label Authority / Consumer Protection / Manufactured Under Fair Labor Standards label, numbered M669291.
The Fur Label Authority designation began appearing on American fur garments in the mid-1950s in connection with consumer-protection and fair-labor standards, providing an important historical dating reference for this piece.
