Just playing with some ideas for the minimalism IRTC round, and came up 
with this rather nice looking glass material.

The source for the material is:

#declare PearlescentGlass =
  material {
   texture {
    pigment { rgb 0 transmit 1 }
    finish {
     reflection { .01, .95 fresnel } conserve_energy
     //big fat phong highlight, to give ethereal sheen to the material.
     //make phong fade with angle, using pov's metallic effect on black
     //(because there's no fresnel for phong)
     phong 30 phong_size 20 metallic 1
     specular 50 roughness .0004   //layer a sharp highlight on top.
    }
   }
   interior {
    ior 1.5
    fade_colour <1,.25,.0>
    fade_distance .5
    fade_power 2
   }
  }

Enjoy!

Some desktop wallpaper based on the same glass material.

Way cool... I like the wallpaper. The ring is cool too. But... do me old 
eyes deceive me? Or is it slightly grainy?

Your eyes don't decieve you. What you're seeing is a very small normal 
map on the groung plane, which is magnified through the glass.
