A short encyclopedia entry defining plush as a textile with a cut nap or pile, like fustian or velvet. It notes that the pile was originally mohair or worsted yarn and later silk, alone or on a cotton backing, and that plush differs from velvet in its longer, less dense pile. It also lists uses in upholstery, furniture, dress and millinery.
