Cut this twisted cane and every cross-section glows warm: concentric bands of sunflower yellow and golden amber alternate with vanilla cream rings, and the center motif shifts along the length. Some cuts reveal a rounded square or diamond outline nested in the rings; others show a bullseye of circles around a small solid center. Slices from one stick are siblings rather than identical twins, all sharing the same warm palette.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane. This listing is one uncut cane stick in COE96, approximately 9 inches long: slice it crosswise to whatever thickness you prefer, then fire the pieces onto the surface of a COE96 project as accents on jewelry, pendants, plates, dishes, suncatchers, and ornaments.
What COE glass should I use with these murrini? This cane is COE96. Use the slices only with glass of the same COE, and confirm your base glass and every other material shares that rating. Mixing expansion rates causes thermal stress that can crack a finished piece.
How do I use these in a fused glass project? Cut slices from the cane and arrange them on the surface of your COE96 base glass; they are surface accents, not a structural layer. A full fuse melts the slices flat and flush; a tack fuse preserves more of their raised profile. Thicker slices hold their relief longer, so cut thickness and firing schedule work together to set the final look.

SKU: 165605 COE: COE96 Sold as: one uncut cane stick, approximately 9 inches long Pattern/motif: concentric sunflower yellow, amber, and vanilla cream rings; center varies between a rounded square or diamond outline and circled dot motifs Working Notes
Always fire a small test piece before committing to a full project. Firing schedules vary by kiln, glass thickness, and design, so match your approach to your specific COE96 glass and equipment, starting from the schedule recommended for your base glass.
