manière criblée
manière criblée (French: ‘sieved manner’) (or dotted manner). A technique used in some metal cuts, in which dots were stamped with a punch over selected parts of the plate to create a textured effect in those areas, the dots showing as white against the inked background. The technique was uncommon after the end of the 15th century, but there was something of a revival in the late 18th century.
