Arabic term or phrase: الزجاج المعتق
Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble finding the meaning of this term. It's from a novel. This term appears in a section where the narrator is describing the cupboard in her dining room:

"تعرض (الخزانة) على رفوفها قطع من الزجاج المعتق والفضيّات التي جمعت عبر السنين"
