A glass composition is disclosed which has a high modulus elasticity (Young's modulus) and a high rigidity (modulus of elasticity/specific gravity) and is capable of being effectively inhibited from bending or vibrating. Also disclosed is a process for producing the glass composition. The glass composition comprises, in terms of mol %, 40 to 65% SiO.sub.2, 5 to 25% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, 2 to 20% Li.sub.2 O, 0 to 9% Na.sub.2 O, 0 to 10% TiO.sub.2, 0 to 10% ZrO.sub.2, 0 to 25% MgO, 0 to 25% CaO, and 0 to 10% SrO, provided that the content of RO (RO=MgO+CaO+SrO) is from 2 to 40% and the sum of (Li.sub.2 O)/2 and Na.sub.2 O is from 1 to 10 mol %, said glass composition further containing, as clarifiers, from 0.01 to 5 mol % SnO.sub.2 and up to 0.1 mol % sulfur (S) in terms of the amount of SO.sub.3.
