Materials: 24K gold plated sterling silver with translucent glass. Size: 0.25” x 2.125” Beira is an independent artisanal studio dedicated to the design and production of contemporary glass jewelry and functional objects. Each piece is handmade in small, limited series in the south of Spain using traditional glass techniques, including cutting, kiln-firing, and cold finishing. The slow, manual nature of the process allows for controlled variation, reinforcing the uniqueness of each object and its material integrity. Through a minimalist approach, Beira explores the relationship between color, material, and form . Inspired by the surrounding natural landscape, the work translates organic references into abstract, wearable compositions, positioning glass as a contemporary and expressivemedium. About The Artist Irene Reyes leads the creative direction of Beira , focusing on design, metalwork, and kiln-formed glass techniques. A central aspect of her practice is the ongoing research and exploration of kiln-based glass processes , with particular attention to contemporary and innovative techniques. Color occupies a central place in her work , acting as both the origin and structural foundation of each collection. Treated as an active element, color holds memory, evokes emotion, and shapes perception, guiding the evolution of form, rhythm, and material balance. Her practice is rooted in material research and a hands-on approach that investigates color, form, and structure through glass as a contemporary expressive medium.
