luxury materials

Cashmere and silk

Luxury materials are high-end substances prized for their rarity, quality, or craftsmanship—silk, cashmere, marble, exotic leathers, precious metals.

The term appears in fashion, interior design, and marketing to signal exclusivity and premium pricing: The boutique specializes in luxury materials from Italian suppliers.

What counts as luxury shifts with availability and taste; yesterday's luxury becomes today's standard.
