engraved
Cut into metal
Engraved describes something with designs or letters cut into its surface: an engraved silver bracelet, engraved wedding invitations.
The image of cutting into material extends to memory and emotion—something engraved on your heart or in your mind is permanently fixed there, impossible to forget.
