Blue Star Murrini/ Millefiore COE90

Each slice in this bag reveals a five-pointed star in vivid cobalt blue, set inside a clear outer ring. The star is solid and well defined, and the contrast between the saturated blue center and the transparent surround gives these murrini a bright, graphic character that stands out wherever they are placed. On a light base the clear ring nearly disappears, leaving the star floating on the surface; on a dark base the ring reads as a subtle halo.

Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and every slice in the bag carries the same star design. Place individual slices on the surface of a COE90 fused glass piece, such as a pendant, plate, suncatcher, or ornament, and fire them so they fuse in as decorative accents.

What does the star design look like?
Each slice shows a solid five-pointed star in rich cobalt blue, centered in a clear field. Slices vary in diameter across the bag but carry the same motif throughout.

What COE glass do I need to use with these murrini?
These are COE90 murrini. Use them only with glass of the same COE. Mixing coefficients of expansion can cause stress and cracking as the piece cools, so keeping all materials at the same COE is important.

How many slices come in a bag?
Sold as a bag of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack. Larger slices suit focal placement and smaller ones scatter well across a background.

How do I use murrini in a fused glass project?
Arrange individual slices on the surface of your prepared COE90 glass base, then fire. Murrini are surface accents, not a casting medium. They work well on jewelry pieces, pendants, small plates, suncatchers, and fused ornaments.

Working Notes

A full fuse will melt the murrini flat and flush into the surface of your glass, blending them into a smooth, level finish. A tack fuse brings them to a partial bond while preserving more of their raised, three-dimensional profile. Neither result is better by default; the right choice depends on the look you want for the piece.

Because kilns and glass batches vary, fire a small test piece first and adjust your schedule to match your specific glass and kiln before committing to a full project.
