From Our Archive: Ebba Krarup was born and raised in Silkeborg, Denmark. She moved to California in 1976, where she got involved in working with glass. She was the owner of Dimensional Design and produced gold plated stained glass wall and mantle clocks. After moving to Bellingham, WA in 2001, she started creating fused glass pieces by designing dichroic glass jewelry, hanging and free standing vases and other functional art. Her studio is on rural acreage and the beauty of nature provides great inspiration for her work. The pieces she makes are fused in a glass kiln at high temperatures. She is best known for her vases for wall, desk or table, but lately her birds have also become very popular. Every piece is handmade and unique. Glass Fire's fused glass work can be found in gift shops throughout the United States and in Sweden and Denmark.
