This circular murrine glass object depicts a pink rose set against a contrasting dark background. Murrine are coloured patterns or images created when thin glass rods or “cane” (made by stretching and compacting molten glass) are fused together, reducing the diameter and internal design. The patterns/images appear when the fused cane is cut into cross-sections.
