Luxury means different things to different people. While some see it in a more abstract form like the value of time, others place great importance in material objects.

A new exhibition in Paris' Louvre seeks to define the term. Put together by the Musee Des Arts Decoratifs (and running until May 2, 2021), it brings together 100 luxurious items spanning centuries and civilisations.
