Each slice carries a snowman motif: a rounded figure outlined in blue on a pale white ground, with small dark dots for eyes, thin branch-like arms, and a spot of red near the head that reads as a cap or scarf. Side-cut pieces in the mix show the cane's blue, white, and red bands as simple stripes, adding variety. The motif is compact and reads even on smaller slices, so these work as both fine detail accents and slightly larger focal points.
Murrini, also known as millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and the snowman design runs the full length of the cane, so every slice shows the same figure. Place slices flat on the surface of a COE96 fused glass project and fire them in so they become a permanent part of the finished piece, on pendants, earrings, plates, suncatchers, dishes, and ornaments.

Specifications
SKU: 164008 COE: COE96 Format: jar of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack Pattern/motif: snowman in blue and white with dark dot eyes, branch-like arms, and a red accent Working Notes
A full fuse melts the murrini flat and flush into the surface, integrating them smoothly; a tack fuse runs cooler and shorter, leaving the slices slightly raised so they keep more of their shape and texture. Test a small sample in your own kiln first, since results vary with kiln, glass thickness, and the specific COE96 glass, and start from a schedule you have already validated.
