Abstract
A sheet-like glass element has a thickness less than or equal to 0.5 mm and an edge with an edge face intersecting opposite glass faces along two edge lines. The edge face has strip-like sections with each one adjoining a respective one of the edge lines. The strip-like sections interface along a boundary line that extends between the edge lines. The strip-like sections have a first section with a width ranging from 2 μm to 8 μm and have a first waviness that is lower than a second waviness of a second strip-like section. The second waviness decreases towards the edge line.

A sheet-like glass element, comprising:
- a substrate element having glass faces and a thickness less than or equal to 0.5 mm;
- an edge of the substrate element with an edge face intersecting opposite glass faces along two edge lines;
- and
- a boundary line that extends between the edge lines,
- wherein the edge face comprises strip-like sections each one adjoining a respective one of the edge lines,
- wherein the strip-like sections interface along the boundary line, and have a first section with a width ranging from 2 μm to 8 μm and have a first waviness that is lower than a second waviness of a second strip-like section, and
- wherein the second waviness decreases towards the edge line.
