our kilns

At La Hoya, we are warm glass artists, employing kilns to heat glass to varying temperatures to achieve desired (and sometimes surprising!) results. Our work is typically fired between 1250 degrees and 1500 degrees Fahrenheit. 

We are proud to have six Paragon glass kilns. Paragon is the premier manufacturer of kilns, located just a few miles away from our studio in Mesquite, Texas. Our kilns include:

  • Ovation 10 with a 41" x 22" x 13" interior
  • Fusion 10 with a 22" diameter x 11" depth interior
  • GL24 with a 22" x 22" x 14" interior
  • Two Pearl 18 clamshell with 17" x 17" interior
  • Caldera (which we use for vitrigraphs)
  • Evenheat 8" x 8" kiln (which we use for doing rakings)

our glass

Our artists use Bullseye glass -- the artist's glass of choice. Located in Portland, Oregon, Bullseye has been a pioneer in developing glass for artists, and is known for its reliability and performance in the kiln, as well as consistency and variety of colors.

our coldworking equipment

Among the most important tools in a glass artist's arsenal are various pieces equipment that enable us to shape and refine our work. Our coldworking equipment includes:

  • Two Covington Engineering wet belt sanders
  • Taurus 3 ring saw
  • Three Inland grinders
  • Water fed angle grinder
  • Two tile saws,
  • Drill press
  • Sandblasting cabinet
  • Dremmels
