This twisted glass cane pairs deep black with warm French Vanilla, and the cross-section at either end shows the design that runs the full length of the rod: French Vanilla held inside a black surround in a concentric arrangement. Because the cane is twisted, the pattern shifts slightly from slice to slice, some cuts showing a small vanilla dot floating in the black field, others a vanilla ring around a darker center. The rich black and creamy off-white give every slice a graphic, high-contrast look.
Murrini, also called millefiore, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane, and this stick is sold uncut so you control slice thickness. This listing is for a single stick. Cut slices and place them on the surface of your fused glass project, then fire them in as decorative accents. This stick is COE90, so use it only with glass of the same COE.
What does the murrini pattern look like?
French Vanilla and black in a concentric arrangement, a vanilla element inside a black outer shell. Because the cane is twisted, the ring pattern varies along the length: some slices show a single vanilla dot in black, others a vanilla ring around a darker core.
What COE glass does this stick require?
This is a COE90 cane stick. Use it only with glass of the same COE. Combining different expansion rates in the same firing introduces stress that can cause cracking or breakage.
How long is the stick?
Approximately 9 inches long. You cut slices at whatever thickness your project calls for.
How do I use cut slices in a fused glass project?
Slice the cane to your preferred thickness and place the murrini on the surface of your glass piece before firing, as accents on pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments.

Working Notes
A full fuse melts slices flat and flush into the surface for a smooth, integrated finish; a tack fuse preserves more of the raised, three-dimensional quality. Both produce different looks depending on your schedule, glass, and kiln. Test a small piece first and use a schedule matched to your specific glass and equipment.
