Fire basket/table with copper top

An evolution of our classic steel fire basket, this decorative dual-purpose design doubles up as a garden table when not in use.

The solid copper top can simply be lifted off when you want to light a fire. This could then be used either as a smart serving tray or placed underneath the basket to catch ash and falling embers.

Open slots around the base ensure good airflow to keep the fire blazing. Ash will escape through several holes in the bowl’s base. Once the ash has cooled completely, you can use it around the garden to feed the soil with minerals and reduce acidity.

Once the fire is out and the bowl is cool, it can be lifted out of the basket for cleaning. Add our fire starter dome to enjoy easier, more reliable fire lighting (sold separately).

Caring for your fire basket

These Crocus Collection fire baskets are made from steel sheet and Ø8mm rod coated with a durable fire-retardant paint. They may be left outside all year round, but certain safeguards will help prolong their life.

To keep the metal in good condition, regularly coat the surfaces with cooking oil or reapply heat-retardant paint. Over time, exposed metal will naturally rust to produce an oxidised protective coating, but the basket will retain its structural integrity over many years of use.

WARNING:
Always remove the copper top when using the fire basket. After use, always wait until the fire has cooled completely before replacing it.

For outdoor use only. Keep children and pets away from the fire pit when lit. Always position away from buildings or combustible objects on a safe, level, non-flammable surface. If using on a paved patio, place on an additional protective paving stone made from solid natural stone or concrete at least 5cm thick. This will avoid possible discolouration and cracking of your patio, as some mock slabs made from resin or ceramic may be susceptible to heat damage. Only for use with logs or charcoal. Never leave a lit fire pit unattended or move when lit. Allow to cool before emptying any ash.
