commesso (technique) (opus sectile (technique), inlay (process), ... Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Process or technique of using individually shaped stones of varying colors used to make a composition, often but not always low-relief rather than flat. Often used for small objects, such as focal pieces in a piece of jewelry. Although usage may overlap, for the process used to make larger works, such as table tops, from shaped stones, prefer "pietra dura (process)."

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Proces of techniek waarbij verschillend gevormde stenen met verschillende kleuren gebruikt worden om een compositie te maken, vaak maar niet altijd met bas-reliëf in plaats van vlak. Wordt vaak gebruikt voor kleine objecten, zoals het kernstuk van een juweel of sieraad. Gebruik, alhoewel de termen kunnen overlappen, 'pietra dura' voor het proces waarmee grotere werken zoals tafelbladen worden gemaakt van uitgesneden stenen. |
