[Italian] From Old French?

Latest comment: 15 hours ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Etymology 1

Borrowed from Old French bald, from Frankish *balþ, from Proto-Germanic *balþaz. Cognate with Old English beald. More at English bold.

Is there a source for "Borrowed from Old French bald"? Wiktionary doesn't have bald#Old French, and further reading Treccani^[1] says "dal germ[anico] bald" (from Germanic bald).
