Description:
Moretti Red and Blue Flower milli is a millefiori cane made from bundled, patterned soft glass that has been fused and pulled into a rod, then cut into small cross-section pieces that reveal the flower design. In lampworking, millefiori is used when you want crisp, repeatable pattern without having to build the design by hand in every bead or component. This red and blue floral pattern is especially useful for traditional floral beads, Italian-style surface decoration, and any work where you want a clean graphic element that stays recognizable after melting in.
How it is used:
- Warm the millefiori gradually at the edge of the flame to reduce thermal shock.
- Apply the piece to a warm bead or component and tack it in place with gentle heat.
- Melt in lightly to keep the flower pattern crisp and raised.
- Melt in deeper for a smoother surface while keeping the design visible.
- Use a clear cap or light encasement to add depth and protect the pattern during shaping.
