depeter Building.|ˈdɛpɪtə(r)|
Also depreter.
[Derivation obscure.
It looks like a formation of L. de and petra stone; possibly from a med.L. dēpetrāre to dress with stone. In that case depreter is an erroneous form.]
(See quots.)
1852S. C. Brees Gloss., Depreter or Depeter, plastering done to represent tooled stone. It is first pricked up and floated the same as for set or stucco, and small stones are then forced on dry from a board. 1876Notes on Building Constr. (Rivington) II. 409 Depeter consists of a pricked up coat [of plaster] with small stones pressed in while it is soft, so as to produce a rough surface. 1886Seddon Builder's Work 248 Depeter, is somewhat similar to rough casting, except that small stones are pressed dry into the soft plaster by means of a board. Ibid., Depreter, is a term sometimes used to denote plaster finished in imitation of tooled stone. |
