Pottery Crafts

Potterycrafts kilns are designed and built in Stoke-on-Trent — the historic heart of British ceramics — and offer potters a dependable, fairly priced route to professional firing. Kiln Crafts stocks the full Potterycrafts range, from compact 30-litre top-loaders for the home studio to large 250-litre front-loaders built for production studios, colleges and schools. Every model is manufactured to consistent UK standards and backed by full spares support from the Stoke factory.

The Potterycrafts kiln ranges

Potterycrafts groups its electric pottery kilns into clearly defined families so you can match a kiln to the way you actually work:

  • Top-loading kilns — the Mercury 30, Aurora 40 and Comet 60 suit home potters and smaller studios, while the Topworker series scales up through 80, 120, 190 and 225 litres for busier workshops. Top-loaders are generally lighter, plug-in friendly at the smaller sizes, and easy to pack from above.
  • Front-loading kilns — the Fireworker 68, Heatworker (90–180 litres) and Lightmaster (150–250 litres) ranges give you brick-shelf access at waist height, which makes loading heavier work and tall pieces far more comfortable for everyday production.

Capacities run from a manageable 30 litres up to a substantial 250 litres, so whether you are firing a few pieces a week at home or running regular class and production loads, there is a Potterycrafts kiln sized for it.

Kiln furniture sets and starter packages

Alongside the kilns, we stock matched Potterycrafts kiln furniture sets for every top- and front-loading model — shelves, props and batts sized to fit the chamber so you can stack and fire efficiently from day one. The starter packages (available for the Fireworker 68, Heatworker 90, Aurora 40 and Comet 60) bundle a kiln with its furniture for potters setting up a studio from scratch, and a WiFi controller upgrade is available if you want to monitor firings remotely.
