Pearl 18, 22 and 44 New! Clam Shell Kilns 

The Pearl top lifts away to give access to the shelf area.  Air pistons assist in lifting the top.  You can compose directly on the kiln shelf, then close the kiln op.  There is no need to balance and carry a heavy kiln shelf from your work table over to your kiln, trying to load the shelf in the kiln while not disturbing the glass pieces in your design.  

The Pearl heating elements are mounted in the lid using a new element groove that eliminates the element pins.  The element coils are wider than the groove opening, so the elements stay in place.  In addition, a special ceramic fiber paper covers the firebrick element grooves.  It is designed to eliminate brick dust from falling onto the glass inside the kiln.  (The Pearl-44 has exposed lid elements).

Mercury relays standard on Pearl 22 and larger.  (Quieter and extremely durable)
