glasscutting
Diamond-tipped craft work
Glasscutting is the craft of cutting, shaping, or decorating glass.
A glasscutter scores the surface with a hard-tipped tool, then snaps the glass along the score line.
The term also covers decorative work—cutting facets or patterns into glassware to create prismatic effects: The crystal vase featured intricate glasscutting.
