Help please the teapot in determining this mineral and whether it has any value, found this mineral in the Carpathians on the river bank.

I don't believe it is naturally occurring glass.

I'm judging the ID on what appear to be bubbles.

Anyone else?

Later I will try to lay out a photo of bubbles better, because I do not have my microscope from a friend, he is repairing mobile phones and when he is free I'll take it.

If I had my microscope, I would have made a lot of pictures of this glass, there is a lot of interesting in it, my friend gave me a microscope for half an hour and now I just managed to take these bubbles, I wonder what now you say.

Yes forgot to add a comment to the first photo, probably bursting bubbles.

Definitely looks like a bubbly piece of manufactured glass which has been on holiday in the open air for a good while.
No value except for the pain you took in studying it.
Too young to be a remnant from a bottle thrown out of the window by Dracula :D

Big Thank you very much for the consultation, and still I'll ask your specialists to tell the teapot where you can read about these bubbles, how to determine them in natural stone and in glass.

They don't occur in natural stones.
See if this article helps you:

On the second post of "more photos", on the right side of the image you see the long curved area? Could this be a base part of the bottle? Due to the amount of air bubbles and color imperfections in the melt, I would guess something that's older glass.... Isi, how about Dracula's nephew?

I know that say that this glass, but still wondering what kind of such beautiful golden rubbish in this glass, and maybe not glass.

File comment: In direct sunlight this inclusion looks very beautiful like gold, and when there is no sun it is black, Sorry for poor quality photos, there is no way to make high-quality photos.

:lol:
After all, vampires never really die, do they ?
Maybe it would be interesting to look for traces of fossilized hemoglobine as an inclusion, or chromophor, in this piece.
