The opening is actually called that in the US by glass workers. They mentioned it in a corning museum of glass live stream, but I can't find it right now.

Oh, well I guess that solves that!

In Taiwan seaweed was often translated into English as "Laver". Never heard of it? It's the type of seaweed used in traditional Welsh cooking.

Sometimes you think you've found exactly the right word, but it turns out it's a specialist term that the general public just won't know.
