Because the material it is made out of only reflects white light.
ANY material reflects light. Some do so better than others.

The material's Luster (lustrous would mean it reflects light) (dull is the opposite)
White
-- A portion of the light energy reflects back from the surface of the material. -- A portion of thelight energy is absorbed into the material and never seen again. -- The remainder of the light energy proceeds on through the material and emerges unbowed and undeterred from the other side.
