Materials are the wide array of base items needed to create objects.
General groups of materials include:
Certain materials are geared toward making certain items. While stones, wood and metal can be made into similar furnitures, there are some items like beds that are restricted to wood and metal. Cloth and leather both can be clothing, but of the two, only leather can also be made into armor. Gems are largely for encrusting previously made items from other materials.
In all cases, each group of material is divided into many possible qualities of material. Many rare stones, like jet are more valuable than more common ones, like diorite. Metals such as bronze and iron are decent for armor, but metals such as silver and gold are better suited for crafts.
It is best to look up each individual category to become familiar with what they can and cannot be used for.
