About the name

Cone five refers to the Orton pyrometric cone, which has been the standard of the ceramic industry since 1896. They are elongated pyramid shapes made of clay and various fluxes. Each cone number will melt and bend at a pre-determined temperature. Thus, cones are used to determine the temperature inside a kiln when ceramic ware is fired. Most functional stoneware pottery is fired at cone 5 (2230).
