Green Hip To Be Square Murrini/ Millefiore COE90

Each slice in this jar is a small square tile carrying a nested square motif: a medium green square frame around a green center block, set on a pale mint-white ground. Because the slices are cut square rather than round, the geometric pattern lines up naturally with the outer edge of each piece. The palette stays in a calm range of soft mint and medium to deeper green, giving each tiny tile a clear, graphic character that reads well even at jewelry scale.

Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane. Arrange individual slices on the surface of a prepared COE90 base glass piece and fire them in place to add pattern detail to pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, or ornaments.

What pattern do these murrini show?
A nested square motif in green on a pale mint-white ground, the same on every slice. Because the slices are square in outline rather than round, the nested design aligns directly with the shape of each piece.

What COE glass should I use with these murrini?
These are COE90 murrini. Fuse them only with glass of the same COE. Combining glass with different COE values introduces stress into the finished piece and can cause cracking as the glass cools.

How many slices come in a jar?
Sold as a jar of assorted slices. Sizes and counts vary from pack to pack, so plan compositions around the assortment you receive.

How do I incorporate murrini into a fused glass project?
Place individual slices on the surface of your COE90 base glass, arrange them as accents or in a repeating grid, then fire according to your kiln and glass schedule. The square outline suits mosaic-style layouts especially well.

Working Notes

A full fuse melts the murrini flat and flush into the surrounding glass, blending their edges smoothly for an even surface. A tack fuse stops short of full melting and leaves the slices slightly raised, preserving more of their three-dimensional relief. The right choice depends on the look you want.

Fire a small test tile before committing to a full project. Kiln behavior, glass thickness, and the density of murrini on the surface all affect how the slices respond to heat. Keep notes on your results so you can repeat what works.
