"Cut glass", posiblemente. "Estallado" quiere decir explotado, explosionado, mientras que


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".

blue glass mosaic


Explanation:
If you check out the link, you will get an idea as to what this could look like in blue, as a table top.

I have seen many table tops decorated like this.

Just an idea
