Each slice carries a night-sky motif: a yellow crescent moon with small yellow-green stars set against a deep cobalt blue ground. The contrast between the bright shapes and the blue ground keeps the design clear even at the smaller diameters, and the same moon-and-stars image appears on every slice.
Murrini, also called millefiori, are small cross-section slices of patterned glass cane. Place individual slices on the surface of a COE96 fused glass project such as a pendant, plate, dish, suncatcher, or ornament, then fire them so they fuse into the surface as decorative accents.
What does the pattern look like? A yellow crescent moon with small yellow-green stars on a deep cobalt blue ground, bold and readable at the small sizes typical of murrini and in finished work.
What glass should I use with these murrini? These are COE96 murrini. Combine them only with glass of the same COE. Mixing glass of different expansion rates creates stress that can cause cracking during or after firing.
How is this sold? Sold by weight as a pack of loose murrini slices. The exact slice count and the mix of sizes vary from pack to pack.
How do I use these in a fused glass project? Arrange individual slices on the surface of your COE96 base glass before firing. See the Working Notes for how a full fuse and a tack fuse change the finish.
Specifications
SKU: 172293 COE: COE96 Format: loose murrini slices, sold by weight (count and slice size vary from pack to pack) Pattern/motif: yellow crescent moon and small yellow-green stars on a deep cobalt blue ground Working Notes
A full fuse melts these murrini flat and flush into the base glass so the motif sits embedded in a smooth surface. A tack fuse preserves more of the raised profile, leaving the slices slightly proud of the surrounding glass. The right choice depends on the finished look you want.
Always fire a small test piece before committing to a full project. Results vary with kiln, glass thickness, and schedule, so match your schedule to your own materials and equipment rather than a generic guideline.
