Origin:
The word "incrustation" originates from the Latin word "incrustare," which means "to cover with a hard crust." The term was first used in the early 17th century to describe the process of forming a hard outer layer on a surface by the deposition of mineral matter from a solution. In the 18th century, the meaning of the word expanded to include the decorative application of materials such as stone, tile, and glass to a surface. Today, the word "incrustation" is used in both geological and artistic contexts to refer to the formation or application of hard outer layers or decorative materials.
