Not sure if you'll find a 'glass' LED anywhere - encapsulation is, obviously, something you've got covered so I'll not mention that subject.
There are already ring light LEDs around (bare PCBs with the LEDs fitted) but dimensionally....??? Not sure what you need or what's on the market in that respect. Worth a quick Google though.
What you need to consider is the target area for illumination though. All LEDs have set beam patterns and your choice may be dependent on the focal length or spread of light you need. The beam shape is often formed by the moulded plastic package the LED die is set into therefore you might need to also consider the way they are to be encapsulated - such encapsulation would affect the beam pattern perhaps.
Then there's the heat issue - LEDs hate excess heat. If your light requirement is particularly high then the associated heat needs to go somewhere. Choosing the 'right' LED (in terms of efficiency, colour, beam width, package dissipation etc) could take time!
Worth it though....
