a type of furnace or oven that is used for baking or drying pottery, ceramics, or bricks
A kiln is a special type of oven used for heating materials to very high temperatures. It is commonly used in ceramics, pottery, and glassmaking to harden or glaze items by firing them at intense heat. Kilns can also be used in other processes like baking bricks or producing certain chemicals. They are designed to maintain precise temperatures and often have insulation to keep the heat contained.
