I make a distinction between things I have sentimental attachment to, important or expensive to replace vs things that are not.

I wouldn’t count all my dinner plates and cutlery as “possessions” as such, but I’d count my good knives.

Those are "prized possessions". Possession means property. If you own it, and would have to pack it up and take it with you when you moved, it's a possession.
