Glass properties

It can take a high polish.
It has no clear crystalline structure.
It has no high melting point.
It is affected by alkalis.
It is an excellent electrical insulator.
It is available in beautiful colors.
It behaves more like a solid than most solids, in the sense that it is elastic. When elasticity is exceeded, it breaks rather than deforms.
It is capable of working in many ways, such as blown, stretched and pressed.
