Sculptural design meets exceptional outdoor cooking with the Arteflame Classic 40" Fire Pit and Cooktop. Crafted from U.S. CORTEN weathering steel, its warm rust-brown finish develops a distinctive natural patina that gives every fire pit unique character.
The removable ½" solid carbon-steel cooktop provides over 1,250 square inches of cooking space with multiple heat zones. Sear at temperatures exceeding 1,000°F near the center, then finish food along the cooler outer edge. After dinner, remove the cooktop and enjoy the open flames as a contemporary outdoor fire feature.
Choose a Short Round Base, sculptural Short Euro Base, or No Base for a custom built-in installation.

Natural Corten Patina
CORTEN weathering steel naturally develops a protective patina when exposed to outdoor conditions. Its finish gradually evolves through warm shades of rust, brown, and amber. Variations in color and texture are intentional, making every fire pit unique.
Care Instructions
Scrape the cooktop clean while warm and apply a light coating of oil to maintain its naturally low-stick patina. Empty accumulated ash as needed and clean the steel base routinely with a soft cloth.
