Its chemical composition is silicon dioxide (in this case, man made glass) by injecting powdered metal bronze in it. During the Victorian era people called Goldstone, chrysoberyl. In antiquity, they meant the mineral olivine and peridot (Chrysolite that means goldstone). The olivine and the transparent quality of peridot have colors in shades of green.
