Glass melts at between 900 degrees F and 1650 degrees F while the lamp operates at an estimated 100-130 degrees F, however, differential temperature changes, especially rapid changes in temperature may cause a glass surface to crack. The lamp is made of glass, and the bottom of the lamp usually has a felt pad, so there is no mechanical reason why the lamp may not be used on a glass surface except it may slip, and the manufacturer's instructions specifically state DO NOT operate the lamp on glass surfaces.
