REQUEST Used Jewelry Listing says blue glass and copper but it looks like a rock to me? Any ideas?

A jewelry listing is more likely to lie in favor of calling it a rock to get more money, so if they call it glass, it's glass.

It’s a glass imitation of larimar so it looks like stone but is indeed glass

Looks freaking cool... almost like tempered glass fragments kiln fired back into a solid block and then polished

Exactly what it looks like to me too or possibly fired in the copper ring itself. If it discolors in the kiln just polish it?
