I used to raid the Fenton Art Glass factory "slag lot" (for lack of any other term for the place) and use the old slag for all the reasons listed here. I kept a few just to dress up my room. I was raised in Parkersburg, WV, just a few miles from Williamstown where the factory is located.
Incidently, they still make some of their stuff the old fashioned way... i.e. pontil rods, snap case, applied handles etc. and they have free factory tours hourly. If you ever have a chance to go there, by all means do it.
