Home Infatuation Weathering Steel Outdoor Fire Pit

Weathering steel, or Cor-Ten steel, is an alloy designed to develop a stable, rust-like appearance after exposure to the elements. This patina isn't just aesthetic; it acts as a protective barrier that prevents further corrosion, making the fire pit exceptionally durable for outdoor use.

Because this fire pit generates significant heat, it is not recommended for use directly on wooden decks or other combustible surfaces. It is best suited for placement on non-combustible patios, stone, or concrete surfaces.

The interior bowl is 28 inches in diameter, and we recommend using approximately 25 pounds of fire glass to achieve the desired coverage and aesthetic. Please note that fire glass is not included with your purchase.

During the initial weathering process, the runoff from the steel can stain porous surfaces like light-colored concrete or pavers. We recommend placing the fire pit on a gravel or dark stone base until the patina has fully stabilized.

A steel fire pit cover is not included with the unit, but it is available for purchase separately. Using a cover is a smart way to keep debris out of the bowl and extend the life of your fire pit.

No, the fire pit is configured specifically for your chosen fuel source at the time of order. You must select either the wood-burning model or the gas (natural gas or propane) model, as the internal components are not interchangeable.
