Decos in Ivory, Ebony and Amethyst

When teaching collective nouns to a class today, I mentioned some of the strange ones – an ostentation of peacocks, a murder of crows, a parliament of owls, a knot of frogs and a skulk of foxes.

That made me wonder what the collective noun for a group of binders would be. What do you think the collective noun for Decos would be? They are rich and sumptuous, ornate yet sleek.
