There are some close ups. These glasses have no seam. The etching is on the outside but is very smooth. Is there a name for this type of design, etching?

This is acid-etching and wheel engraving, which has been polished so there's no sharp edges. A seam would have meant these were pressed glass and made from molds. You're all set here - let me know if you have any questions...and thank you again for using Mearto.
