Patina Funky Dog 36" Steel Fire Pit by Fire Pit Art - Funky Dog-FPA-MLS120-NG
A whimsical look at man's best friend. This original design is made to order by a Tennessee craftsman in the heartland of America. They are constructed from heavy-duty one-quarter inch thick mild carbon steel and are the most durable steel fire pit made anywhere. The inner bowl has a high-temperature resistant coating and comes with a one and a half inch rain drain. The outer iron oxide patina is maintenance-free and the fire pit can be left outside in all weather conditions.
Over time and use the patina will mature and darken a few shades and then remain permanent forever. Each unique fire pit is individually numbered by the artist on an attached brass plaque.
