Each slice shows a music note in bold black on a white or clear ground, reading as a quarter or eighth note shape. The sharp two-color contrast keeps the musical imagery clear across the range of sizes in the pack.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane. Place individual slices on the surface of a COE96 fused glass project such as a pendant, plate, dish, suncatcher, or ornament, then fire them in as decorative accents.
What does the pattern look like? A black music note, resembling a quarter or eighth note, on a white or clear ground. The image is bold and well-defined, readable even in the smaller slices.
What glass should I use with these murrini? These are COE96 murrini. Combine them only with glass of the same COE. Mixing different expansion rates creates stress that can crack the piece during or after firing.
How is this sold? Sold by weight as a pack of loose murrini slices. The exact count and mix of sizes vary from pack to pack.
How do I use these in a fused glass project? Arrange individual slices on your COE96 base glass before firing. See Working Notes for full fuse versus tack fuse results.
Specifications
SKU: 164503 COE: COE96 Format: loose murrini slices, sold by weight (count and slice size vary from pack to pack) Pattern/motif: music note, black on a white or clear ground Working Notes
A full fuse melts these murrini flat and flush so the motif sits embedded in a smooth surface. A tack fuse preserves more of the raised profile, leaving the slices slightly proud of the surrounding glass. Always fire a small test piece before a full project; results vary with kiln, glass thickness, and schedule, so match yours to your own materials and equipment.
