This jar gathers an assortment of holiday motifs in a red, white, blue, and green palette. Blue-ground slices carry crisp white snowflakes with branching crystalline arms. Cream-ground slices show a miniature green Christmas tree dotted with tiny colored ornament spots. Bold diagonal red-and-white stripes run edge to edge on candy-cane style pieces, and white peppermint-style rounds carry red scalloped edges. A darker accent motif centers a multi-petal floral shape ringed in red, and solid-color pieces in blue and white round out the mix as spacers and fillers. No two jars will be identical in exact composition.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and each motif runs the full length of its cane, so every slice shows its design face-up. These are COE90 murrini, made to fuse with COE90 glass. Place individual slices on the surface of a base glass piece and fire them in to add holiday accents to jewelry, pendants, dishes, suncatchers, or ornaments.
What patterns are included in this holiday mix? The assortment includes white snowflakes on blue, green Christmas trees with colorful ornament dots on cream, diagonal red-and-white candy-cane stripes, white peppermint-style rounds with red scalloped edges, and a dark multi-petal floral design ringed in red, plus solid blue and white accent pieces. Motif ratios vary from jar to jar because the slices are sold as an assortment rather than a fixed set.
What COE glass should I use with these murrini? These are COE90 murrini. Fuse them only with glass of the same COE. Pairing glass with mismatched coefficients of expansion introduces thermal stress that can crack the finished piece during firing or cooling.
How many slices come in this jar? These murrini are sold as a jar of assorted slices. Slice sizes, counts, and the motif mix vary from pack to pack, so plan your composition around the assortment you receive.
How do I use murrini in a fused glass project? Arrange slices face-up on the surface of your base glass before firing. You can compose them deliberately: group snowflakes in one corner, scatter candy-cane stripes across a plate, or use a tree slice as a small focal point. Fire the piece in your kiln and the murrini fuse into the surface, locking in each holiday motif.
Specifications
SKU: 161302 COE: COE90 Format: jar of assorted slices; sizes, counts, and motif mix vary from pack to pack Motifs: holiday assortment including snowflakes, Christmas trees, candy-cane stripes, peppermint rounds, red-ringed florals, and solid-color accents Working Notes
A full fuse melts the murrini flat and flush into the surface of the surrounding glass, blending the colors smoothly into the base layer. A tack fuse keeps more of their raised, three-dimensional relief, so the motifs sit visibly above the surface. The result you get depends on your glass, your kiln, and how high you fire.
Run a small test piece before committing a full project. Murrini behavior varies with kiln type, shelf position, and the specific base glass you are using, so develop a schedule matched to your own setup rather than relying on a generic firing program.
