    hard to say. i found lots of things in the desert. my husband is a geologist. if you mail me a picture, i will have him look at it.

    there is lot of crystal stuff in egyptian deserts, most are worthless unless you enjoy it as decoration in your house. does it has a greenish tone in the bottom of the crystals? i have lots of them. it depends also where you found it. if it was near a roman settlement, it could be ancient glass, but if it scratch glass now, i doubt it. i found lots of this, but not this big of a piece, that would be uncommon. tell me more about it, maybe i can help you.

    send me a picture...susuegypt@hotmail.com

    there's a lot of things that will scratch glass, so I would take it to a jeweler and find out what it is.
