mosaic work
Pieced tile craft
Mosaic work is the craft of creating images or patterns by arranging small pieces of colored stone, glass, tile, or other materials into a surface.
The term covers both the process and the finished product: The cathedral is famous for its Byzantine mosaic work.
The pieces, called tesserae, are typically set in mortar or adhesive.
