Conventionally, the molding surface of the mold used in this press molding has been mirror-finished by optical processing, as described in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 116137/1983, and has been formed with high surface precision. Then, by using such a mold, a glass material having a surface roughness of Rmax0.1 μm or less or close to this is heated and made into a fire polish-like surface, or a shape similar to the final product shape. The semi-finished molded glass was then reheated and kept at a moldable temperature and then press-molded.
