i especially like the description...
"'Duvetyne’ is a material woven from cotton, or wool if you fancy, which is so opaque that it’s practically invisible, like glass, or water."
because everybody knows that glass and water are two examples of the most opaque things in the universe, with no record of light EVER passing through either of them
