Paragon CT102322 Ceramic and Pottery Kiln
The Paragon CT102322 offers spacious capacity, rock-solid construction, and dependable cone-10 performance in a versatile 10-sided design suited for studios, classrooms, and production potters. With a 22.5" interior diameter × 22.25" depth (5.10 cu ft), it provides generous room for plates, bowls, tall forms, and full loads while remaining easier to load than deeper kilns — an ideal balance for high-volume ceramic work where capacity and reachability both matter.
Three-inch firebrick walls, solid-state relays, and a vent-ready AOP base form the core of a kiln engineered for consistent, long-term production. Recessed element grooves eliminate pins, the drop-down hinged switch box provides front-access for maintenance, and a reversible firebrick floor extends service life. Hand-built in Mesquite, Texas, the CT102322 delivers even heat, reliable high-fire performance, and the durability that serious ceramic studios depend on.
Included with every order
Sentinel SmartTouch controller with cone-fire and ramp-hold programs, solid-state relays (SSR), vent-ready AOP base, and Paragon's 2-year warranty. Optional furniture kit (six 20" round shelves, assorted square posts, and kiln wash) and VentMaster kiln vent available at checkout.
