Anyone heard of this fur before?

"Samink" was a short lived promotion of mink that was of such a high quality as to rival sable.

I'm not sure what happened to this. Kojah seems to be the same idea.

Minks do come in so many textures and qualities, to say nothing of colors.

Samink was (is?) only carried by one NYC furrier and he wouldn't let me come and visit, years ago, when I called to enquire: he thought I was an industrial spy! True story.

If I remember correctly... Kojah is a type of fur produced when sables are bred to mink. Richard Burton bought a kojah coat for Elizabeth Taylor in the 60's. I think it was the first and possibly the last kojah coat made.
