What Is A Mink Blanket?
Since I saw my first mink blanket over 20 years ago, they have changed quite a lot.The original designs I saw were very simple floral designs and a few simple animal designs.The floral and animal designs of yesterday pale in comparison to the patterns of today.A Mink Blanket is not in fact a blanket which is made out of animal mink per say. It gets that term from its softness and texture and is in fact usually made out of polyester or a blend of acrylic and polyester.Now not every mink blanket is of the same quality and many people ask me how can they tell which is of higher quality.The difference in a high quality mink blanket as opposed to a poor quality mink blanket is in its weave and the detail of the design.Unfortunately the quality of the weave can only be assessed by feeling the blanket and not by a picture alone. Although some factories in China and Korea make high quality mink blanket, many do not and this should be kept in mind.Also many designs lack detail and clarity and this can be told by looking at the blanket. Once again some factories employ superior technology when designing a mink blanket while others try to use cheaper technology and you end up getting cheaper looking designs, which can be pretty easy to tell by just comparing the 2 side by side.
While its true that in the beginning China was known for producing sub standard products, over time with the investment in new technologies, many factories in China are now producing higher quality mink blanket then Korea.It is in fact an “old wives tale” that just because the mink blanket was produced in China it must be of poorer quality then the mink blanket produced in Korea.So don`t be fooled by this misinformation.
