Most slices carry a dark, near black spider centered on a muted green ground. The spider has a compact rounded body with legs reaching outward, and the background shifts from deeper olive to brighter grass green across the jar for a mossy, natural range rather than one flat color. A few solid olive pieces appear where the cane shows edge on.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and every patterned slice carries the same image on its face. 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 does the motif on these murrini look like? A dark spider with a rounded central body and legs spreading outward. Strong contrast keeps it readable against every green shade in the mix.
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 jar of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack. The mix of smaller and larger slices gives you fine detail accents and focal pieces from the same jar.
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 single spider slice can anchor a composition as a focal point or repeat as scattered detail across Halloween pieces, nature themed dishes, pendants, and ornaments.
Specifications
SKU: 156404 COE: COE96 (combine only with glass of the same COE) Sold as: jar of assorted slices; sizes and counts vary Motif: Dark spider silhouette on olive to grass green 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.
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.
