It's usually debris from a glass object that ended up in the ocean, broke into pieces, and was smoothed by the action of waves and sand.
It can come from pretty much anything - old soda bottles, lamps, windows, whatever. Back in the days when Coke bottles were made from thick, foam-green colored glass, there were loads of pieces that would wash up on shore at the end of the summer. They could be quite interesting, with different shapes and degrees of polishing.
