An apparatus for fining a molten glass comprising a fining vessel, and a cradle for both supporting and preventing oxidation of the fining vessel. High cradle sidewalls which extend above the fining vessel, and a bedding material enhance the support and oxidation prevention capability of the cradle. Keystone refractories engage with channels formed in the bedding material, helping to prevent high-temperature creep of the bedding material and damage to the fining vessel. |
