In Myanmar culture, glass mosaic (Шаблон:Lang-my) is a traditional form of glasswork where pieces of glass are used to embellish decorative art, structures, and furniture.

The former is typically used to decorate the walls and ceilings of pagodas, while the latter is used to embellish furniture and accessories.
