Blackglama
Blackglama is a certification mark, not a species. It identifies top-grade North American black mink from a specific producer group, selected for depth of colour and consistency across a garment. Every Casiani Blackglama piece is built by hand in Greece, matched skin to skin so the black reads as one continuous tone rather than a patchwork.

FAQ
What does Blackglama actually certify?
It certifies origin and grade: top-tier North American black mink from a defined producer group, selected for colour depth and consistency. It is a mark applied to the pelt, not to the finished coat. It does not certify how well the garment was made, so construction quality still varies by furrier.
Is Blackglama mink different from ordinary black mink?
Yes, in grade rather than species. Both are mink. Blackglama pelts are selected from the top of the grading range for depth and evenness of colour, which is what allows a long coat to read as a single continuous black instead of showing tonal variation between skins.
Does the Blackglama name justify the premium?
It justifies part of it. You are paying for consistent top-grade pelts and easier matching across a large garment, which genuinely matters on a full-length coat. On a small piece with few skins, the matching advantage is smaller, so the premium is easier to question. Judge the garment as well as the label.
How can I tell a coat really is Blackglama?
Ask the furrier directly and ask for the auction or producer documentation. A reputable seller will have it and will show you. If a seller cannot or will not evidence the claim, treat the label as unverified.
