The current definition runs:
Rehaut = French for flange. The engraved ring/flange under the crystal.
As you rightly say, "lately" it has become a place...
So not all rehauts are engraved.
In my opinion the definition would be better as something like:
Rehaut = French for flange. The ring/flange that is under the crystal and which is engraved in modern references.
