† plumbaginen.

Forms: 1600s plumbagin, 1700s–1800s plumbagine, 1800s plombagine.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French plombagine.

Etymology: < French plombagine graphite (1553 in Middle French) < classical Latin plumbāgin- , plumbāgō (see plumbago n., and compare the etymological discussion at that entry). Compare Italian piombaggine graphite, also plant of the genus Plumbago (both a1498 in a translation of Pliny, rendering Pliny's uses of classical Latin plumbāgō), Spanish plombagina graphite (1791 or earlier; also plumbagina; < French).

Obsolete.

1. Lead added to gold or silver in a smelting furnace in order to reduce the melting point. Also: lead ore containing silver.
