About the Artist:
Kira Robertson (Burnin’ Beads by Kira) creates handmade glass beads, which are formed in the fire from coloured glass rods. Kira uses a variety of skills and techniques to create whimsical beads and unique jewellery in Peterborough, ON. Each glass piece is properly annealed in a kiln for strength and durability, and then they are meticulously cleaned and made into lovely, one-of-a-kind jewelry items using high quality metals, such as sterling silver.
Kira studied glassblowing at the Haliburton School of the Arts where she learned the art of lampwork. After learning the basics from college, she developed her own technique and a unique style that is showcased in her work today. Kira draws inspiration from everything fun and playful and has a passion for creating.
