silk finish
Smooth textile surface
A silk finish is a smooth, lustrous surface treatment that mimics the soft sheen of silk fabric.
In paper and photography, a silk finish falls between matte and glossy—providing subtle reflection without harsh glare: The wedding photos look best with a silk finish.
Paint with a silk finish offers gentle shine and is easier to clean than flat varieties.
