marquetryn.

Brit. /ˈmɑːkᵻtri/, U.S. /ˈmɑrkətri/

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French marqueterie.
Etymology: < Middle French, French marqueterie (1416; 1409 as merqueterie ) < marqueter to variegate (1380, usually in past participle marqueté ; < marque mark n.1 + -eter , verbal suffix) + -ie -y suffix3.Some scholars reserve the term specifically for inlaid veneer work, a technique which was popular in 16th-cent. France and reached its culmination in the work of André-Charles Boulle (see Boulle n.). This style of decoration became fashionable throughout Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. Quot. 1665 at main sense appears to be an attempt to connect the word with the name of the Prophet Muhammad (compare Mahumet , variant of Mahomet n.) by analogy with a supposed connection between ‘mosaic’ and the name of Moses. In 19th- and 20th-cent. use in form marqueterie probably remodelled after French marqueterie.
Inlaid work in wood, ivory, etc., esp. as used for the decoration of furniture.
