A short encyclopedia entry defining plush as a woven cloth with a long, shaggy pile that, unlike velvet, is not clipped to a uniform length. It describes the older construction with a double warp of worsted and goat's hair and a worsted filling, and the later use of silk and cotton, including tussah silk. It refers readers to the article on weaving.
