draws out the attractiveness/beauty of the material Explanation: It's not clear from the context whether this refers to a process which increases or improves the beauty or attractiveness of the material or materials being worked or a setting which makes their inherent beauty or attactiveness more apparent. However, I think that the above could be used in either case. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-03-27 08:49:40 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- On second thought, the verb \"brings out\" might be better. |
