If a man has chiselled features, his face looks as if someone carved it with care: the chin, the mouth, the nose, the cheekbones have a strong, clear shape. The lines are sharp, not soft. We say this as praise, most often about a man's face in stories, films, and magazines. It comes from a chisel, the tool a sculptor uses to cut stone — so the idea is "cut into a clear shape," like a statue. Nobody took a tool to the person; it is a picture-word. British English writes chiselled with two l's; American English often writes chiseled with one. People also say a chiselled jaw or chiselled cheekbones for the same idea. Though actually, you will also hear chiselled about a body that looks carved, like a stomach with clear muscle lines — same picture, different part of the body. And chiselled is also the ordinary past of the verb chisel, "cut with a chisel," but when we talk about looks, we mean the carved-face sense.
