Made-up, I mean. The owner's surname is very Italian, though, so I'm wondering if it has Italian roots? Or not. :o) Funnily enough, I don't care for Ara, but I find Tessara (in which the Ara sound is very prominent) quite appealing.

It's not made-up, it's a word
It's Latin in origin. A tessera (plural tesserae) is a glass tile used in a mosaic. I have my period interiors class to thank for that random bit of knowledge. :)

Tessera is a word, but Cambria is talking about Tessara.

I thought it was a combo of Tess and Sara. It does look made up. I googled, and it is, in fact, a word. Apparently a math one refering to quadrilaterals. A tessaraglot is someone who speaks four languages, or something. I want to prn it TES-er-ah, though.
