You know that basic sphere on top of a cylinder on top of a cube
that's used all over the place to demonstrate textures.

Maybe not a name for that specific shape but a name for objects
of that type, like a stone or wood merchant might carry round
as samples.

I was thinking "patten" but that's a kind of shoe, or "doily"
but thats a sort of napkin...

maybe it just doesn't have a name.
