The PARAGON CT102329 is a round, 10-sided kiln with an interior diameter of 23” and an interior height of 29”, providing a generous 7.10 cubic feet of firing space. This deeper configuration is ideal for artists producing taller sculptural work, loading multiple layers of ware, or running frequent batch firings. It’s a favorite among production studios and schools with high throughput—offering both capacity and performance in one robust design.

Built for high-volume firing, the CT102329 features a sectional construction that allows each ring to be separated for easy transport, brick repair, or element replacement. The top row of grooveless 2” blank bricks helps protect the interior during loading.

Maintenance is simplified with a drop-down switch box hinged at the base, supported by a fold-out arm. The lid is outfitted with Paragon’s patented LiteLid spring system, making it light to lift while reducing wear between the lid and top rim of firebrick. A reversible floor brick extends the kiln’s service life.
