It looks very, very like contemporary Mexican Recycled glass.

I saw a whole load of this for sale in a garage. I asked him where he had got it from and he said he had brought it from some guy who was short of money and that this was all he had left in the way of something of value.
He didnt tell me how much he had paid for it but they were priced up at 50p and he joked I will do you a special rate if you buy it by the kilo. :huh:
