Word origin

The term 'marbled' originated from the Middle English word 'marbel,' which came from the Old French word 'marbre' and the Latin word 'marmor.' The use of marbled patterns in art and design dates back to ancient civilizations, such as the Greeks and Romans, who used marble in their architecture and sculptures. Over time, the term evolved to describe not just the material marble, but also any surface or object that resembled the distinctive veining and coloration of marble.
