The disclosed cover glass is produced by etching a glass substrate that has been formed by a down-drawing process, and chemically strengthening the glass substrate to provide the glass substrate with a compressive-stress layer on the principal surfaces thereof. The glass substrate contains, as components thereof, 50% to 70% by mass of SiO2, 5% to 20% by mass of Al2O3, 6% to 30% by mass of Na2O, and 0% to less than 8% by mass of Li2O. The glass substrate may also contain 0% to 2.6% by mass of CaO, if necessary. The glass substrate has an etching characteristic in which the etching rate is at least 3.7 μm/minute in an etching environment having a temperature of 22° C. and containing hydrogen fluoride with a concentration of 10% by mass.
