chamfered
Cut at angle
Chamfered describes an edge or corner that has been cut away at an angle, typically 45 degrees, to create a beveled surface where two faces meet.
The term appears most often in woodworking, metalworking, and architecture, where chamfering softens sharp edges for safety, aesthetics, or to ease assembly.
The chamfered corners of the table give it a more refined look.
A chamfered edge contrasts with a rounded edge, which curves rather than angles.
