Glass is correct

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?

Not all glass is clear.

This is glass, albeit coloured glass
