Fun Time Millefiori Assortment - 90 COE

Fun Time Millefiori Assortment - 90 COE

Item# 85811
Avoid the pink/orange/blue pieces!, April 27, 2010 1 stars
Pros
All but one color melts well-no matter the thickness-but the inconsistent sizes and diameters of the pieces make for inconsistent-sized circles once they're fired.
Cons
The pink/orange/blue pieces MUST be a different COE. I made a platter, fired it 10 degrees hotter than usual, and let it soak for 10 minutes. All but the pin/orange/blue pieces melted.The BE Tekta pulled away from the orange millefiori, causing a dimple with the millefiori (unmelted) in the middle of the dimple. Now the platter has a rough-feeling surface, and I worry it's going to crack one of these days.
Other Thoughts
The pink/orange/blue pieces need to be kept out of this mix because of their incompatability or different behavior when fired.
