The source I used (see the link under the related links section) states that:
- Hydrogen
- Carbon
- Nitrogen
- Oxygen
- Phosphorus
- Sulfur
- Selenium are all of the non-metals and contain no luster. So your question would be invalid. If there is one answer I would personal have to go with to answer your question though, my answer would be Carbon, because most of everything contains carbon especial diamonds, which are super lustery.

Which metals are not lustrous?
Lustre Is An Property Of Metals: Thus All Metals Have Lustre However Lead Being A Metal Is Considered To Be Non Lustrous But Actually Lead Is Bright And Silvery When Freshly Cut But The Surface Rapidly Tarnishes In Air To Produce A Dull Lustre Associated With Lead.
How do you tell if a bond is covalent?
if it occurs between non metal atoms. Covalent bonds can only occur between non metal atoms but Ionic bonds occur between metal and non metal atoms.
Are all metals shiny and in solid form?
Not all metals have lustre(that is, to be shiny) nor are all in solid form. It is just a characteristic property found among majority of the metals. For example, sodium is a metal which lacks lustre and mercury is in liquid form at room temperature.
Is Neon a Metal Or Non-Metal?
Neon is a non-metal. It is one of the Noble Gasses which are all non-metals.
What is a non-reactive metal?
a metal that doesn't react with any other substance
Non-metal which has lustre?
diamond
Which non metal shows some lustre?
This chemical element is iodine.
What is the lustre of aluminum?
The lustre of a metal is how shiny the metal is.There are two different types of lustre. One is metallic lustre, which is like the shininess of a polished metal surface. The other is non-metallic lustre, which is the opposite of metallic lustre, but is still shiny

What are the things which has lustre?
Almost all metals are lustrous and shine and some non-metals like Graphite and iodine do have some lustre.
What is the only non metal that is liquid at room tem?
Bromine (Br) is the only non-metal which is liquid at room temperature and pressure.
What is the characteristic of non metal?
The characteristic of non-metals are-1. Non-metals are gases or solids at room temperature, except bromine, which is liquid at room temperature.2. Non-metal solids are generally not as hard as metals and have low tensile strengths. However diamond, an allotrope of carbon, is very hard.3. They do not have luster. However, silicon, iodine and graphite have metallic lustre.
Which non metal element is a liquid?
Bromine (Br) is a liquid at room temperature and is a non-metal. The only liquid element that is not a metal is Bromine (Br). There is one other element that occurs in liquid form and that is Mercury (Hg).
Carbon is a(n)?
Carbon (C) is a natural chemical element, non metal.
What is the only common non-metal called?
All elements are either metal or non-metal. The most common non-metal elements are hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. See 'Related Links' below
How do you tell if a bond is covalent?
if it occurs between non metal atoms. Covalent bonds can only occur between non metal atoms but Ionic bonds occur between metal and non metal atoms.
What is a reactive non metal?
A non-reactive metal has a high electronegativity and can react only in special conditions with nonmetals or acids.
