Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Vesuvius measures 21 inches across at its widest point and stands 48 inches tall, making it uniquely vertical rather than wide. It weighs approximately 135–150 lbs and is built from 1/4-inch thick mild carbon steel, giving it its heavy-duty, heirloom-quality construction.

  • The Vesuvius requires no installation — it is a freestanding, ready-to-use wood-burning fire pit that arrives fully assembled. It can be left outside in any weather conditions year-round, and its built-in 1.5-inch rain drain prevents water from accumulating inside the bowl.

  • All components of the Vesuvius fire pit are warranted for a period of 10 years after the date of purchase by the original owner. If an optional Artisan Spark Guard is purchased, the mesh screen material is guaranteed for 60 days against failure, while its framework is guaranteed for 10 years with proof of purchase, shipped back prepaid to Fire Pit Art.

  • The Vesuvius features a natural iron oxide patina finish that starts as a bright orange-rust color and gradually matures into a rich, dark mahogany with use — no painting or sealing required. The finish makes it completely maintenance-free; however, you should never cover it with a tarp, as this can blacken the patina and halt the oxidation process, and may cause the tarp's color to transfer to the steel.

  • Yes — the Vesuvius is specifically designed for smaller outdoor spaces, as its tall, vertical trilateral shape takes up only 21 inches of floor space while standing 48 inches high. Its three-sided design channels smoke and fire upward through the flue while simultaneously protecting the fire from wind and significantly reducing the spread of sparks and embers, and the heavy carbon steel walls soak up and radiate heat outward.
