glass cutting
Precise sheet severing
Glass cutting is the craft or process of scoring and breaking glass along precise lines, or of grinding and polishing decorative patterns into glass surfaces.
The first sense applies to glaziers fitting windowpanes; the second to artisans creating cut crystal with faceted designs: The glass cutting on these wine goblets catches the light beautifully.
