		 Cinderella's slipper was probably fur; the french words for "fur" and "glass" sound very similar -- probably identical to the english-speaking ear.  Ermine slippers are a tad more practical than glass.  (Actually, the word for "earthworm" also sounds very similar.  There's an interesting visual.)
