Each slice in this bag shows a pair of flip flop sandals rendered in red with dark, clearly defined straps, set against a solid bright yellow ground. The contrast between the yellow field and the bold red sandals keeps the motif crisp and readable even at small murrini scale. Most slices are round, with a few squarer pieces in the mix, and every one carries the same cheerful flip flop pair from edge to edge.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane; the pattern runs through the cane's full length, so every slice reveals the same image. To use them, place individual slices face up on the surface of a COE90 fused glass project and fire them in your kiln so they fuse in as decorative accents on pieces like pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments.
What do the slices in this bag look like?
Each murrini shows two flip flop sandals side by side, red with dark straps, framed by a solid yellow background that fills the disc. The warm red and yellow combination makes these a natural fit for summer, beach, or casual themed fused glass designs.
What COE glass do I need to use with these murrini?
These are COE90 murrini. Use them only with glass of the same COE. Fusing glass with mismatched coefficients of expansion causes the materials to expand and contract at different rates in the kiln, which can introduce stress cracks in your finished piece.
How many slices come in a bag?
Sold as a bag of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack. The size range works for single accents on pendants as well as scattered patterns across plates and dishes.
How do I use these in a fused glass project?
Place individual slices face up on the surface of your base glass before firing. They are surface accents, not a casting or base layer material. Arrange them as a scattered pattern, a border, or a focal cluster on pendants, earrings, plates, dishes, suncatchers, or ornaments, then fire them in so they bond to the surface.

Working Notes
A full fuse will melt these murrini flat and flush into the glass surface, integrating the flip flop motif smoothly into your piece. A tack fuse will preserve more of the raised profile of each slice, leaving the motif slightly three dimensional above the base glass. Both approaches work, and the choice depends on the look you want for your finished piece.
Always fire a small test piece before committing to a full project. The right schedule depends on your specific glass, kiln, and the result you are after. No single ramp rate or hold time works for every setup, so testing first will help you dial in the approach that works best for your materials.
