Each slice reveals a compact heart in shades of red: a deep crimson outer edge with a lighter pink-red interior, giving the motif visible depth even before firing. The translucent glass glows with color when held to a window or light.
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 and fire them in, adding hand-placed accents to jewelry, pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, or ornaments.
What does the motif on these murrini look like? A red heart, deep crimson at the perimeter and lighter pink-red inside. It reads clearly at a range of sizes and suits romantic, celebratory, or seasonal projects.
What COE glass do I use with these murrini? These are COE96 murrini. Combine them only with glass of the same COE. Mixing expansion rates introduces thermal stress during firing and cooling that can crack the finished piece.
How are these murrini sold? Sold by the pack. Slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack, giving you a natural range of sizes to work with.
How do I use these in a fused glass project? Arrange individual slices on the surface of your COE96 base glass before loading the kiln. See Working Notes for how full fuse and tack fuse change the finished look.
Specifications
SKU: 153837 COE: COE96 Pattern/motif: Red heart, deep crimson edge with a lighter interior, in translucent glass Sold by the pack; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack Working Notes
A full fuse melts each slice flat and blends the heart smoothly into the base glass, softening its edge. A tack fuse stops short of full melting and keeps the heart raised and more three-dimensional. Fire a small test piece before a full project, since results vary with kiln, glass, thickness, and schedule.
