5. The colored glass according to claim 1 , wherein a content of Na 2 O is 1% or more.

6. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising 10% or less of P 2 O 5 .

7. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising 3% or more of P 2 O 5 .

8. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising from 0 to 9% of B 2 O 3 .

9. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising from 0 to 6% of B 2 O 3 .

10. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising from 0 to 4.5% of ZrO 2 .

11. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising from 0 to 5% of La 2 O 3 .

12. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising at least one of CaO, SrO and BaO in a total amount of from 0.2 to 12%.

13. The colored glass according to claim 12 , comprising CaO in a range of from 0.2 to 3%.

14. The colored glass according to claim 1 , wherein MgO/SiO 2 which is a ratio of a content of MgO to a content of SiO 2 is 0.45 or less and 0.14 or more.

15. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising from 66 to 72% of SiO 2 , from 2 to 4% of Al 2 O 3 , from 16 to 24% of MgO and from 4 to 10% of Na 2 O.

16. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising 58% or more and less than 66% of SiO 2 , from 2 to 6% of Al 2 O 3 , from 11 to 18% of MgO, from 8 to 13% of Na 2 O, and from 3 to 7% of P 2 O 5 .

17. The colored glass according to claim 1 , comprising, in terms of mole percentage on the basis of the following oxides, from 60 to 73% of SiO 2 , from 2 to 5% of Al 2 O 3 , from 13 to 30% of MgO, from 0 to 13% of Na 2 O and from 0.5 to 4.5% of P 2 O 5 .
