Which outcome accelerated decay within Mughal pietra dura inlay due to material incompatibility?

💡 Explanation

Hygroscopic stress promoted sulfate attack because differing materials absorbed moisture unevenly causing expansion/constraction within the inlay's porous layers, therefore, fracturing the stone, rather than galvanic corrosion because there were few dissimilar metals involved.
