Lift-Top Access, Balanced Heat
The Paragon Pearl 22 Glass Fusing Kiln is built for serious glass artists, educators, and studios that need greater firing capacity and advanced heat control. With a 22" x 22" x 13" firing chamber and Paragon's vertical lift-top design, the Pearl 22 delivers precise digital performance for fused glass, slumping, casting, bowls, and layered glasswork.
The smooth lift-top opening gives you open access from three sides, so projects can be arranged directly inside the chamber instead of carrying loaded shelves between worktables and the kiln — reducing the chance of disturbing delicate glass layouts. Combined top-mounted and upper sidewall heating elements promote balanced, even heat across larger projects.
Included with every order
SENTINEL Touch Xpress digital controller, instruction manual, and 2-year limited warranty. Optional Muffle Top, solid-state, and mercury displacement relay configurations available.
