What makes glass colored?
It depends on the glass. Some glass is literally stained; that is, painted with a transparent dye. Some glass is colored internally by the presence of small amounts of transition metal compounds. Cobalt, for example, gives a characteristic deep blue; copper can produce a pale blue, and the pale aquamarine of a glass Coke bottle is due to small traces of iron. Finally, some glass is colored by the deposition of an extremely thin film of metal of a very precisely controlled thickness. This is called dichroic glass, and is interesting because the color results from the reflection of certain frequencies rather than absorption. The glass therefore doesn't heat up as much, making this a very popular method of generating color from high-powered theatrical lights (the moving colored lights in rock concerts often use dichroic glass).
