Present Murrini/ Millefiore COE96

Each slice in this jar shows a vivid red center circle set inside a deep green outer ring, a simple two color motif named for the look of a wrapped gift viewed from above. The saturated red against dark forest green gives these slices an immediately festive character, well suited to holiday ornaments, seasonal jewelry pendants, decorative plates, and suncatchers.

Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane; every slice reveals the same pattern running through the full length of the cane. To use them, place individual slices on the surface of a prepared COE96 fused glass piece and fire them in as decorative accents.

What pattern do these murrini show?
Each slice displays a bright red central circle surrounded by a deep green outer border. The red and green pairing reads instantly as a holiday palette, making these slices a natural choice for festive fused glass projects, though the simple ring motif works year round as a graphic accent.

What COE glass must I use with these murrini?
These are COE96 murrini. Fuse them only with glass of the same COE. Combining murrini and base glass with different expansion rates creates internal stress that can crack the finished piece during or after firing.

How many slices come in a jar?
Sold as a jar of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack. Expect a mix of sizes within each jar.

How do I use these murrini in a fused glass project?
Arrange individual slices on the surface of your COE96 base glass before loading the kiln. They work well as focal accents or scattered details on jewelry pendants, small plates, dishes, suncatchers, and holiday ornaments. Place them motif side up so the design shows cleanly after firing.

Working Notes

A full fuse will melt these murrini flat and flush into the surface of the glass, merging the red center and green border into smooth, embedded color with minimal surface relief. A tack fuse stops the firing earlier, preserving more of each slice's raised, three dimensional profile so the motif stays crisper and more textured above the surface.

Always run a small test piece before committing to a full project. Firing results vary by kiln model, base glass thickness, and the specific COE96 glass you are working with, so use a schedule matched to your equipment and materials.
