* Wenlin strangely says it's Yunnan marble, and Baidu Baike has as an entry on some kind of rock from Guangdong also called 云石 (https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E4%BA%91%E7%9F%B3/5899758). It's possible a number of different rocks have been or still are called 云石, but for the most part it seems t refer to marble generally.

Not marble nor the gilded monuments
Of princes shall outlive this powerful rhyme,
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone besmeared with sluttish time.
没有云石或王公们金的墓碑能够和我这些强劲的诗比寿;
你将永远闪耀于这些诗篇里,远胜过那被时光涂脏的石头。
[Shakespeare, Sonnet 55)

Editor: I imagine it does literally mean "stone from Yunnan" (in referring to marble from there), but that the meaning was later extended to marble in general.
That's what Grand Ricci's definition suggests, anyway: "marbre du Yunnan; marbre".
