Mummy Murrini/ Millefiore COE90

Each slice in this jar reveals a small mummy face: overlapping diagonal strips of white and gray bandage wrappings surround vivid yellow-green eyes, all set against a deep black background. The contrast between the pale wrappings and the dark field makes the motif read clearly even at small scale, and the glowing eyes give each piece a lively, slightly eerie character. A few side-cut pieces read as solid black. This jar is a natural fit for Halloween ornaments, seasonal suncatchers, and spooky-themed jewelry.

Murrini, also called millefiore, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, so the same mummy image appears on every slice. These are COE90 murrini, used as surface accents: arrange individual slices on the surface of your fused glass project and fire them in so they bond to the base glass beneath.

What does the mummy pattern look like?
A mummy face with white and gray bandage wrappings in overlapping diagonal strips across a black background, with small yellow-green dots for the eyes.

What COE glass do I need to use with these murrini?
These are COE90 murrini. Fuse them with glass of the same COE. A different expansion rate introduces stress during heating and cooling, which can cause cracking, so confirm your base glass and any other elements are all COE90 before firing.

How many slices come in a pack?
Sold as a jar of assorted slices, so each jar holds its own mix of smaller and larger faces.

How do I place murrini on a fused glass project?
Arrange individual slices on the surface of your COE90 base glass, such as a pendant blank, a small dish, or a suncatcher panel, then fire. Try spacing a few across a piece for a scattered pattern, or cluster them for a denser arrangement.

Working Notes

A full fuse melts the murrini flat and flush into the surface for a level finish. A tack fuse uses a lower peak and shorter hold, leaving the slices more raised and preserving the fine line detail in the wrapping pattern.

Results vary with kiln model, glass thickness, and kiln load, so fire a small test piece before committing to a full project. Start from your kiln and glass manufacturer's recommended schedules for COE90 work and adjust based on what you observe.
