Explanation:
"entallado" quiere decir "kerfed", que es un cortado o canalizado realizado por sierra o segueta.

Busqué en mis diccionarios técnicos de español y no figura "estallado" ni "entallado" para cristal.

Pero sí figura "tallado", que es "engraved". Y "engraved glass" es conocido en la industria como "cut glass" y significa "glass, especially flint glass, shaped or ornamented by grinding and polishing".

Just an idea
