Indian Crucible Steel vs. Pattern Welding

[Emanuel]

Earlier in "Indian and Oriental Arms and Armour" Egerton uses "jauhar" specifically referring to the pattern in crucible steel.

"It is then allowed to subside, and the crucible is placed on the ground to cool gradually, so that the particles form crystals, from which the "jauhar", or beautiful combinations so much prized in the sword blades, are obtained."

So in 19th century English writing, we have the term "jauhar" being used to refer to the pattern in both crucible steel and pattern-welding.

You seem to confirm this AJ, that in the Persian context, "Jawhar" refers to the patterning or "watering" effect.

The question remains, was there any distinction between the two methods, or were they both "folAd e jawhardAr " or "pulad/fulad" + "jauhar/jawhar/johar" -steel with more or less good pattern?
