This bag mixes sea life designs: blue dolphins arcing across a white ground, and green sea turtles with olive shell centers ringed in yellow green. Both motifs read cleanly at small scale, and the mix also includes plain white pieces where the cane shows edge on. The balance of designs varies from bag to bag.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and each slice shows the image of the cane it was cut from. Rated COE96, they are placed on the surface of a fused glass project and fired in, adding color and motif to jewelry, plates, suncatchers, dishes, and ornaments.
What patterns do these murrini show?
The mix includes blue dolphins on a white background and green sea turtles with visible shell detail ringed in yellow green. Slices of the designs arrive blended together, along with some plain white edge on pieces.
What glass do I need to fuse these with?
These murrini are COE96. Combine them only with glass of the same COE. Mixing coefficients of expansion builds stress into the piece and can cause cracking during or after firing.
How many slices come in a pack?
Sold as a bag of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack. The blend of sea life designs also varies between bags. The mix of smaller and larger slices gives you fine detail accents and focal pieces from the same bag.
How do I use these in a fused glass project?
Arrange individual slices pattern side up on the surface of your base glass, then fire. They are surface accents, not a base layer, so a dolphin or turtle slice can anchor a composition as a focal point or repeat as scattered detail across ocean themed plates, suncatchers, pendants, and ornaments.

Working Notes
A full fuse melts the slices flat and flush with the surrounding glass for a smooth, integrated surface. A tack fuse stops at a lower peak, leaving the slices slightly raised with more defined edges and a subtle dimensional profile. Choose based on the finish you want for the piece.
Fire a small test piece before committing to a full project. Kiln behavior, glass thickness, and layout all shift results, so let your own test confirm the schedule for your COE96 glass.
