Every noble material speaks a language of its own. Few words are needed to understand it, but they must be listened to carefully.
Density: how full, compact and even the surface is. Weight: how it feels on the shoulders after an hour, not after a moment. Light: how the material receives it, holds it and gives it back.
True luxury rarely announces itself. It is recognised in the coherence of these three elements, in the care with which the parts are joined, in the feeling that nothing was left to chance.
