Know before you buy
The pot should be set directly into mortar on your existing chimney cap. For areas prone to extreme weather or high winds, we recommend using additional anchoring methods to ensure the 44-pound structure remains stable.
The natural clay provides a classic, matte terra-cotta look that weathers over time. The optional gloss glaze is fired onto the clay, creating a non-porous, vibrant surface that resists fading, peeling, and environmental wear.
This model features a square base with an outer dimension of 11 1/2 x 11 1/2 inches and an inner dimension of 9 3/4 x 9 3/4 inches. You should measure your chimney cap opening to ensure it provides a stable, level surface for these dimensions.
No, the glazed finish is exceptionally low-maintenance. Because the glass coating is fired directly onto the clay, it is highly durable and can be easily cleaned with water and a soft brush if debris accumulates.
The unit weighs 44 pounds. While it is manageable for most, we recommend having two people assist with the installation to ensure it is placed safely and accurately into the mortar bed.
