    How to distinguish Quartz from Glass?

    I recently came upon a supplier who sold glass as quartz (I was later able to verify his stones as glass when I took them to a supplier who has his own gemstone factory).

     Is there a way to tell firsthand if stones are actually glass?  I know that glass is less cold at first touch.  What else?

    Thanks in advance!
