The real question is why are you concerned with this? In what context.
Does you wish to create one and not the other? You probably could also
add the word mosaic to your conundrum.

recently created in order to help others clean toilet bowls.

Are those "things" (created for alt.home.repair earlier this

You could call them "composites".
