Each slice shows a single bat with wings spread wide, a deep charcoal silhouette against a vivid, saturated orange ground. The dark-on-bright contrast keeps the shape readable at fusing scale, a good fit for jewelry-scale pieces and larger decorative projects. A few pieces come from square-cut cane, so expect the occasional square outline among the rounds.
Murrini, also called millefiore, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane. These COE96 bat murrini are used as decorative accents: place individual slices on the surface of a prepared COE96 fused glass piece and fire them in. They are a natural fit for pendants, earrings, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments.
What does the pattern on these murrini show? A bat with wings extended as a dark charcoal silhouette on a bright orange field. The recognizable shape makes slices easy to place and position.
What COE glass do I use with these murrini? These are COE96 murrini. Combine them only with glass of the same COE. Glass of different expansion rates expands and contracts differently during firing and cooling, which creates stress and can cause cracking.
How are these murrini sold? Sold by the pack. Slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack, so you get a natural range of sizes to work with.
How do I use murrini in a fused glass project? Arrange individual slices on the surface of your COE96 glass base, then fire in your kiln. See the Working Notes below for choosing full fuse versus tack fuse, and fire a small test piece first.

A full fuse brings these bat murrini flat and flush into your COE96 glass surface for a smooth, level finish. A tack fuse pulls back from full melt and leaves each slice with more raised texture and dimensional character. The right approach depends on your intended look, your base glass, and how your kiln behaves. No single schedule fits every setup, so run a small test piece before committing a full project to a new temperature profile.
