Know before you buy
No, the iron oxide patina is designed to be maintenance-free. It naturally darkens over time and is intended to be left outdoors in any weather without needing protective covers or touch-ups.
The fire pit features an integrated 1.5-inch rain drain at the bottom. This ensures that water does not pool inside the basin, preventing rust buildup and keeping the interior clear.
Yes, the fire pit weighs 185 lbs and is constructed from 1/4-inch thick steel. Its substantial weight and sturdy base make it very stable and unlikely to shift in windy conditions.
Because this is a wood-burning fire pit that reaches high temperatures, it is not recommended for use directly on wooden decks or combustible surfaces. It is best placed on a non-combustible surface like stone, concrete, or brick.
The inner coating is applied to protect the steel from the direct heat of the fire. It helps maintain the structural integrity of the 1/4-inch steel over years of regular use.
Each Fire Pit Art piece is hand-crafted and individually numbered by the artist. You will find a brass plaque on the unit that confirms its unique production number.
