Jen-Ken AF3C Ceram-a-Glass 1513 – True Dual-Media Kiln for Glass & Ceramics

The Jen-Ken AF3C Ceram-a-Glass 1513 is a versatile, compact dual-media kiln designed for artists who work in both glass and ceramics. Its smart switching design lets you change between glass and ceramic firing modes with a simple toggle, giving you true flexibility in one studio-friendly footprint. Perfect for fusing, slumping, casting, annealing, bisque, and glaze firings.

This kiln fits a 13" round shelf and square work up to 9" × 9", making it ideal for jewelry makers, mixed-media artists, hobby ceramicists, and small batch makers.

Two Kilns in One

Glass Mode
Top/lid elements deliver strong overhead radiant heat while side elements assist to bring the kiln to temp—ideal for fusing, slumping, tack fusing, and annealing.

Ceramic Mode
Side-firing coils provide even heat for clay and glazes up to Cone 6 (≈ 2150°F). Great for bisque, mid-range glazes, casting molds, and thicker glass work requiring extended anneals.

Note: With a special manual bypass (request at purchase), this model can be configured to reach up to approx. 2300°F.
