Each slice is cut square rather than round, showing the same clean geometry: a warm, saturated orange square framed by a white border, with a faint lighter mark at the center of the orange field on many pieces. The crisp orange against white keeps the nested design legible even on the smallest slices, and the square outline makes each read like a tiny framed tile.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane; the nested square design appears on every cut face. Place slices on the surface of a COE90 fused glass base and fire them in as accents on jewelry, pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments.
What does the pattern in these murrini look like? A square within a square: a solid warm orange center framed by a white outer border, with a faint lighter mark at the center of many pieces. The square outline gives them a graphic, tile-like character.
What glass COE are these compatible with? These are COE90 murrini. Fuse them only with glass of the same COE. A different expansion rate creates thermal stress during cooling and can crack the piece after an otherwise clean firing.
How many slices come in a jar? Sold as a jar of assorted slices; sizes and counts vary from pack to pack. The square cut stays consistent even as widths vary.
How do I incorporate these into a fused glass project? Arrange slices on the surface of your prepared COE90 base before firing. Fire a small test piece first to dial in the result.
Specifications
SKU: 13975 COE: COE90 Packaging: jar of assorted slices; sizes and counts vary Pattern/motif: square within a square; warm orange center with white outer border; square cut slices Working Notes
At a full fuse the murrini melt flat and flush, integrating the orange and white pattern into the surface. A tack fuse leaves each slice raised and three-dimensional, keeping the tile silhouette and nested square detail pronounced. Results depend on your glass, kiln, and schedule, so fire a small sample first to confirm the look before a finished project.
