Provided are SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 -based or Li 2 O-Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -based crystallized glass that solves the cause of cracking and fracture in forming it into large-size shaped articles, that has homogeneous inner quality and that may be produced stably at highefficiency; andamethodforproducingit. Thecrystallized glass contains components of SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 , wherein the crystal precipitation peak temperature width obtained in differential thermal analysis of amorphous glass, a precursor thereof, is at least 22°C. Preferably, the total amount of the TiO 2 component and the ZrO 2 component in the crystallized glass is within a range of from 3.0 to less than 4.3 %.
