Chad G. Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 I found a site with a couple "thousand" marble terms, both U.S & Foreign. I'm not familiar with at least 80% of them but a new point of study. I would post the link but I respect the copywrite and use clause they have listed on the site "of course" at the very bottom of a very, very long page.

Chad G. Posted January 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 Veneer : A manufacturing & collectors term describing a thin layer of opaque colored glass on another base glass, most often on an opaque white marble; a cost saving manufacturing technique requiring far less of the more expensive colored glass.
