Morphology

topped = top (transparent) = top + ed

Regular adjectival/past-participle formation from the verb 'top' using the productive suffix '-ed', so the meaning 'having a top of/covered with X' is directly inferable.

Etymology

The word topped comes from top, which means 'highest point' or 'upper surface'. To top something is like putting a hat or a cover on it, so topped means 'having something placed on the top'.
