A person who engraves or carves designs into metal; a metalworker who specializes in chasing.
From 'enchase' plus the agent suffix '-er' (one who does). The word refers to a specific craft occupation in metalworking.
Enchasers were distinct from other metalworkers—they required both artistic vision and incredible hand control to create patterns on precious metals without mistakes that couldn't be undone.
