It's a fairly complex industrial process, but most good modelling shops will
sell resin kits (you just mix two liquids iirc). Don't try and make ashtrays out
of it though....

The stuff looks a bit like this:

  texture{
    pigment{rgbf 1}
    finish{
      reflection{fresnel on}
    }
  }
  interior{
    ior 1.5
  }
