Italian term or phrase: ribattuto in fuori

Grande coppa con piede, in vetro “cristallo”.
Bacino sagomato nella parte inferiore, mediante la tecnica della “mezza stampatura”, con costolature ad andamento spiraliforme; la parte superiore presenta pareti lisce, sottolineate da due applicazioni in filo di vetro blu, di cui una lungo l’orlo.
Piede svasato, sagomato con coste a forte rilievo, profilato in basso da un cordone in vetro blu, applicato e ribattuto in fuori.

There are plenty of references to this around but I can't find the relevant English term.

Thanks!

applied flattened foot ring

Explanation:
The reference also gives base ring as an alternative, but the flattened part simply means that the base was beaten outwards to give a more solid base to the object.
