Olympic 23" Top-Loading Electric Pottery Kiln

Olympic Kilns has been making kilns in since 1972—starting out right here in Seattle, Washington—and is now are one of the foremost kiln manufacturers in the country. These stackable electric models are all built with the Olympic-proven electrical box design, which has heat shields with top and bottom perforations to keep the electrical components cool, and balanced heating elements to ensure even heating of the firing chamber under all firing conditions.

This 23" diameter Olympic Electric Kiln is an excellent size for regular ceramic pottery firing. Considered medium-sized, it's a great choice for anyone who needs to fire frequently but doesn't want to wait to fill up a much larger 28" diameter kiln. Check out our Kiln Buying Guide.
