E12T Enameling and China Painting Large Kiln

PARAGON E12T: Extra height for bigger ideas

The PARAGON E12T gives you the trusted performance of the E Series—with more vertical chamber space than the E12A model to expand your creative potential. Designed for enameling, silver and bronze clay, china painting, glass fusing, and low-fire ceramics, this kiln offers a generous 9" interior height, letting you work with taller molds, containers, or 3D jewelry forms.

Firing up to 2000°F (1093°C) on standard 120V power, the E12T is ideal for both professionals and serious hobbyists working with a variety of media and techniques. It’s also the perfect match for those who need additional headroom compared to the E12A.

Why own a kiln like this?

If you’ve ever been limited by vertical space in a tabletop kiln, the E12T solves that. With 3" more interior height than the E12A, this model comfortably accommodates 10" bronze clay containers, taller glass slumping molds, or multi-layered kiln furniture setups. The front-loading design and smooth door hinge system make it easy to load delicate work with confidence.

Why choose the PARAGON E12T?

The E12T features a chamber measuring 8.5" W x 12" D x 9" H and is insulated with 2.5” thick firebricks that store heat for slow, even cooling—ideal for annealing jewelry-scale glass without needing to reapply heat. The kiln includes a top-mounted vent hole with a tapered firebrick plug, making it suitable for lost wax casting or venting combustible binders like cork clay.

The PARAGON E12T comes equipped with the SENTINEL Touch Xpress controller, mounted in the sloped front base for space-saving access. This intuitive touchscreen controller gives you full control over ramp rates, hold times, skip steps, and mid-fire adjustments—ideal for refining programs across various materials.

A door safety switch pauses the firing cycle when opened and automatically resumes when closed. The latch system is designed for smooth, single-hand operation, protecting fragile pieces during use. The built-in base keeps cool even during extended holds, eliminating the need for a separate stand.

Who is this kiln for?

The E12T is the go-to choice for artists who work in larger formats or need extra space for complex pieces. It’s especially well-suited for professionals working in bronze or silver clay, enamelists using risers or taller trivets, and those doing glass sagging, slumping, or casting. If you're transitioning from small tabletop kilns to something more capable—but still portable—the E12T is the ideal next step.
