Definition
A paste made from plaster, paint, or other materials used to fill cracks or disguise repairs in stonework and interior decoration.
Etymology
From French 'badigeon,' possibly from Latin or dialectal European roots. The term traveled through architectural and decorative trades in medieval Europe.
Kelly Says
Restorers still use badigeon techniques to make centuries-old buildings look pristine—it's basically the art of making modern repairs invisible, so you can't tell where damage was once repaired in ancient structures.
