The weapons she creates with the help of her glowing pads I think are from maiden powers, but the glass is using her dust infusion and a jar of sand. No, the weapons she creates are from the Dust sewn into her clothes. Her clothes glowed orange, but red has consistently been fire, so orange is not fire. I think orange is lava, due to the fact that the swords she created were black and glass-like. They were obsidian, which is volcanic black glass.

She used lava Dust to manifest lava and then used her control of the lava Dust to cool the lava into the shape of obsidian swords. She then channeled her Aura into the swords to protect them from breaking. After all, Pyrrha has said that their weapons and equipment are conduits for Aura. That's also how Pyrrha and Blake were able to use bread to fight without the bread breaking until they threw it. They channeled Aura into it.
