(glôs)

A gloss is a brief summary of a word's meaning, equivalent to the dictionary entry of that word, but...can often specifically refer to a note made in the margins or between the lines of a book, in which the meaning of the text in its original language is explained. As such, glosses can vary in thoroughness and complexity, from simple marginal notations of words one reader found difficult or obscure, to entire interlinear translations of the original text and cross references to similar passages. A collection of glosses is a glossary (though glossary also means simply a collection of specialized terms with their meanings). [wikipedia]

If I were to compose a gloss on these terms:
1. luxury
2. collection
3. taste
.......

But first, I need to curate a collection of 24 objects, each of which are under $100 in value, that embody the pinnacle of luxury and taste. This should flow into my thoughts on how to tackle the glosses.
