beveled
Edged at angles
Beveled describes a surface or edge cut at an angle rather than square.
A beveled mirror has edges ground to slope inward.
Beveled glass refracts light decoratively.
The term applies to woodworking, metalwork, and stonecutting where edges are deliberately angled: a beveled picture frame, beveled tiles.
Also spelled bevelled.
