Which outcome accelerated the degradation specifically affecting pietra dura inlay within Mughal-era sandstone structures?

💡 Explanation

Differential thermal expansion weakened the bonding between the marble or semi-precious stones and the sandstone substrate, because the materials have different coefficients of expansion; therefore, the pietra dura loosens and may fall out rather than staying intact like plain sandstone would have.
