     The Paragon Super Dragon Kiln is the big brother of the Paragon Dragon Pottery Kiln. The Paragon Super Dragon is the really BIG Brother of the Dragon. Unlike the Paragon Dragon, who has a choice of kiln stands, the Paragon Super Dragon comes standard with a built-in stand reinforced with heavy gauge steel tubing which is necessary to support the weight of the door that weighs over 250 lbs. In spite of the heavy weight, the kiln door on the Paragon Super Dragon moves with just fingertip pressure due to a special hinge system which uses SIX hinge assemblies to fasten the door to the kiln and then four spring door latches to hold the door in place during firing. The level of attention to the door and mounting hardware is carried out throughout the entire kiln and makes the Paragon Super Dragon a truly unique kiln for pottery and sculpture.



     "I couldn't find a kiln large enough for my pots", and the Dragon Master at Dogwood Ceramic Supply "got me in touch with Paragon, and they made two Super Dragons for me. They are just the right size kilns for my pots. I am completely satisfied with their performance." Brian Courtney of Donavisa's Pottery Designs Slidell, Louisiana.

    The features listed on this page are based upon the pair of Paragon Super Dragon Kilns sold to Brian Courtney. Your Paragon Super Dragon can be made to any possible configuration and will be black in color unless you request a different color. Need a taller kiln? Not a problem. Need a wider kiln? Not a problem. The floating door system developed by Paragon means virtually any kiln configuration is possible. Oh, and it is no problem if you want your Paragon Super Dragon to be painted hot pink. For additional information on how Paragon can make a Super Dragon work for your studio just contact the Dragon Master at Dogwood Ceramic Supply.
