Copper chiminea - great for patio decor and warmth

Shiny as can be, copper chimineas continue to be a favorite. They are decorative and can be kept in their original shiny condition, or they can gracefully patina and weather, which they will do if left without attention over time. However, there is a quality concern to be aware of. Make sure that you buy from reputable merchants. Online we choose Yardiac. They carry 100% solid copper chimineas. (Along with other types) This is important because mixing with inferior metals is one of the main reasons that these chimineas don't last. What happens is that a hole can burn through the center which can create a potential fire hazard.

 

Copper chimineas are hot!

If you are looking to buy a chiminea, a 100% copper one will cost you about $300. If you buy online, the choices tend to look the same. Perhaps that's because the stores are buying from the same manufacturer.

In any case, copper chimineas typically feature:

  • a powder coated metal center
  • spark screen with door
  • sturdy powder coated metal stand
  • metal grate

About assembly? Easy, quick and shouldn't require special tools.
