I think there's something wrong with the perspective. It bugs me when I look at it. If you look at the lines leading into the background, then the mat's lines will eventually meet each other in one point, but the glass' lines won't - they're parallel. Of course, if the icon is seen on it's own, I don't think it matters - it's just that with this background it really jumps out at me.
Since app icons are generally made with an isometric-style perspective, placing them in environments where there actually IS perspective and a vanishing point will slightly distort things. However, if the environment contains no perspective, it ends up looking worse.
