Paragon CT102329 Viking Ceramic and Pottery Kiln
The Paragon CT102329 Viking is purpose-built for high-demand ceramic environments that require deep-chamber capacity, reinforced construction, and reliable cone-10 performance day after day. Its 22.5" interior diameter × 29" depth (7.10 cu ft) offers the tall firing space needed for sculpture, stacked ware, and frequent large batch loads — making it a top choice for production studios and large teaching spaces.
The Viking edition brings extra durability to every component: 3" firebrick walls throughout, solid-state relays for silent long-lasting control, and a vent-ready AOP base that pairs seamlessly with the optional VentMaster. Sectional twist-lock latches allow rings to be separated for maintenance or transport, and the LiteLid spring system keeps the lid light and stable for smooth one-handed lifting. Recessed element grooves, a drop-down hinged switch box, and a reversible firebrick floor complete a kiln built to outwork the competition.
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 (eight 20" round shelves, assorted square posts, and kiln wash) and VentMaster kiln vent available at checkout.
