This Spring Assortment Mix brings together several nature motifs in a palette of red, yellow, blue, and white. Ladybug slices show red bodies with black spots on white or clear grounds; yellow flowers with golden centers sit on red grounds; bluebird slices show a blue bird with lighter accent detail on a white ground; blue butterflies appear as deep blue silhouettes on pale grounds; and pink and lavender flowers on blue grounds round out the mix. Assortment contents may vary from pack to pack.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and each cane carries its pattern through its full length so every slice shows a complete image. Place these COE90 slices on the surface of a fused glass base and fire so they fuse in place, on jewelry pendants, earring blanks, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments.
What COE glass should I use with these murrini?
These are COE90 murrini. Fuse them only with glass of the same COE. Combining glass with different coefficients of expansion introduces thermal stress that can cause cracking as the piece cools, so verify that your base glass, any frit or sheet you add, and these murrini all match.
How many slices come in a bag?
Sold as a bag of assorted slices; slice sizes and counts vary from pack to pack, making this a natural sampler for spring and garden themed projects.
How do I use these murrini in a fused glass project?
Arrange individual slices on the surface of your base glass before firing; they are surface accents, not a base layer. A full fuse melts them flat and flush for a smooth surface; a tack fuse preserves more of each raised profile, keeping the ladybug, flower, bird, and butterfly outlines more distinct.

Working Notes
Always run a small test piece before firing your main project. Firing behavior varies by kiln and by glass formula within the same COE family, so use your test results to dial in temperature and hold time for your specific setup rather than applying a generic schedule.
