PARAGON KL FIREFLY: Compact Freedom for Big Creative Sparks
The PARAGON FIREFLY is a compact tabletop kiln that gives you the freedom to fire anywhere there's a standard 120V household outlet. Lightweight and travel-friendly, it’s the perfect companion for seminars, small studios, or even creative getaways. Whether you’re fusing glass, testing glazes, or firing small ceramic pieces, the FireFly delivers serious performance in a portable form.
Why Fire at Home or On the Go?
Waiting to fill a large kiln can slow down inspiration. With the FIREFLY, you can test glass slumping, glazes, or new materials immediately—no batching required. This means faster results, lower material waste, and creative momentum that never stops. With a peak temperature of 2350°F (1287°C), you’ll have all the power needed for both glass and high-fire ceramics.
Why Choose the PARAGON FIREFLY?
The FIREFLY is built for serious work in a compact form:
-
Solid Firebrick Construction: Durable 2.5" insulating firebricks ensure excellent heat retention and safe, even firing.
-
Reinforced with L-Joints: Corners are fitted with long-lasting L-shaped notches—superior to weaker mitered or butted joints.
-
Reliable Heating Elements: Recessed coils are protected in dropped grooves to extend lifespan. Elements are easily replaceable and built from premium high-temperature wire.
-
Thoughtful Lid Design: The self-adjusting lid with front and side handles lifts easily and stays open with a built-in stop.
-
Clean, Protected Wiring: High-grade nickel-plated copper wiring and a stainless steel heat shield inside the switch box protect vital components and extend electrical life.
Who Is This Kiln For?
-
Teachers: Ideal for classroom glaze testing—no more ruined loads from unknown clay types. Fire samples and student gifts without relying on the school’s main kiln.
-
Artists & Hobbyists: Test colors, make jewelry, or create small-scale glass art like pendants, beads, and castings.
-
Studio Owners: Use it as a dedicated test kiln to complement your main unit and prevent production mistakes.
-
Beginners: A smart and affordable way to start exploring the magic of heat and transformation.
