Maximize Your Pottery Potential with the Olympic 28" Raku Updraft Gas Kiln

Unlock the full potential of your ceramic creations with the Olympic 28" Raku Updraft Gas Kiln, a top-tier choice for potters seeking to master the art of raku firing. Designed with the professional in mind, this kiln delivers the precision, versatility, and efficiency needed to achieve stunning, high-quality results every time.

Superior Heat Retention and Accessibility

The Olympic 28" Raku Kiln is specifically engineered to make raku firing more efficient and accessible. Its innovative hand crank system lifts the firing chamber, providing quick and easy access to your pieces from all sides while retaining the heat within the chamber. This design minimizes heat loss and reduces turnaround time, allowing you to focus on creating beautiful, unique raku pieces.

Durable Construction for Consistent Results

Constructed from high-quality firebrick, the Olympic 28" Raku Kiln is built to last. The kiln is equipped with a venturi burner system that ensures even temperature distribution, essential for achieving consistent results across all your firings. Whether you’re working on bisque, high-fire (cone 10), reduction, or raku, this kiln offers the reliability and performance you need.

Portability and Flexibility

The Olympic 28" Raku Kiln stands out for its portability and flexibility, making it ideal for studios, workshops, or any space where permanent kilns are not feasible. Its stackable design and multiple burner configuration provide even heating, fast firing times, and economical operation. This kiln is compatible with both propane and natural gas, offering further versatility in your firing options.

Customizable for Your Needs

Tailor your kiln to your specific needs with Olympic’s customizable burner options. Choose from the standard burner setup or upgrade to a system with an ignition feature that lights multiple burners at once, maintains a consistent flame, and automatically reignites if needed. The thermocouple safety shut-off feature ensures that the gas flow stops if the flame is lost, providing peace of mind during every firing.

Complete Firing Solution

Each Olympic Raku Kiln comes with a welded frame, peephole plugs, a brick for covering the porthole during reduction, and a comprehensive instruction manual. Plus, with a one-year limited warranty, you can trust in the kiln’s quality and durability for long-term use.

Create Stunning Raku Art

The Olympic 28" Raku Updraft Gas Kiln is your gateway to mastering the raku process, allowing you to create pieces with rich textures, vibrant colors, and unique finishes that only raku firing can achieve. Experience the perfect balance of tradition and innovation with this exceptional kiln, designed to elevate your pottery practice to new heights.
