There are few things that are perfectly black. You can see many things, with detail, that are colored black. Obviously whatever you see is reflected light, light not being absorbed by the object. The reflection you see from the blackened glass is probably light coming off the glass itself, which remains uncolored, if you think about it. The color cuts down on interference from objects that would otherwise show through the glass. It is not absorbing all light. The reflected images are light it is reflecting back. When it looks black however it is not reflecting light into your eyes.
