Luxury Lexicon A definition

Luxury

A market category associated with craftsmanship, distinctive design, service and relatively high prices.

Luxury spans several product and service sectors rather than describing a single material or production method. Clothing, leather goods, watches, jewellery and hospitality can all belong to this market. Craft expertise, creative identity and the experience offered to clients contribute to how a business positions its products. Those elements also create different kinds of work, from making an object to presenting it and managing customer relationships. The label alone does not establish how an individual product was made. A useful assessment looks at the particular product, its construction and the service accompanying its sale.
