Each patterned slice in this jar carries a nested square motif: a small colored center square set inside one or two contrasting square fields, all within a square-shaped slice of glass. The assortment covers a wide range of color pairings, including cobalt blue with olive green centers, deep forest green with lighter green, yellow on white or cream, orange on white or pale pink, and periwinkle with orange or violet centers, among others, plus some solid-color squares. The overall effect is a bold, geometric mix that adds strong interest to any fused glass surface.
Murrini, also called millefiore, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, so each design repeats across the slices cut from the same cane. To use them, place individual slices on the surface of your glass project and fire so they fuse in as decorative accents. These COE96 murrini suit jewelry pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments made with compatible COE96 glass.
What does the pattern on these murrini look like? A colored center square enclosed by one or two contrasting square fields, in the color combinations noted above. The mix gives any project lively geometric variety.
What COE glass must I use with these murrini? These are COE96 murrini and must be fused only with glass of the same COE. Using glass with a different expansion rate creates stress during cooling and can cause cracking or breakage.
How many slices come in a pack? These murrini are sold as a jar of assorted slices. Slice sizes, counts, and the exact mix of colorways vary from pack to pack.
How do I use these slices in a fused glass piece? Place individual slices on the surface of your base glass before firing. See the Working Notes below for full fuse versus tack fuse, and test on a small sample piece first to dial in the result you want for your specific glass and kiln.

At a full fuse, these COE96 square murrini melt flat into the surface of your piece for a smooth, flush finish. At a tack fuse, they retain more height and a more pronounced square profile, letting the geometric pattern stand out from the surface.
Results vary by kiln, glass thickness, and firing schedule. Always test on a small sample piece first and adjust your approach to match your specific glass and kiln setup.
