The word "chiseled" ultimately derives from the Latin verb "caedere," meaning "to cut." This verb is also the origin of the English word "castrate."
The word "chiseled" entered English in the 14th century from Old French. In Old French, "chiseler" meant "to cut or carve." The word was borrowed into Middle English and eventually adopted its modern meaning.
The phrase "chiseled features" is used to describe facial features that are sharp and well-defined, as if they have been carved by a chisel. This usage dates back to the 16th century.
