If you're seeking something unusual in the way of fire in the garden (or on the patio), then look no further than these edgy firepits from the Italian company AK 47.
Made of stone or steel, not only do they provide warmth for extending the seasons, but they also come with "covers" for the open pit that lets you use the item for other things ... for sitting, for putting down trays, for drawing, whatever... your imagination is the limit.
Zen, the model shown to the left, is configured of stone and steel, but the stones can be re-arranged and the central basin for the fire can be moved anywhere within the basin. So you can have a "formally" arranged firepit or one that's off-center for a more modern landscape.
In the upright Thor firepit, there's a central core ... the wood is inserted at the top of the column, and the fire itself burns in the center. Now where have you ever seen anything like that???
This particular item would fit into tiny gardens and create a spectacular scene at night-time.
There are several other styles available, and the company also makes innovative storage containers for wood. You can check out all of them on the AK 47 Design website.
In the United States, AK 47 products are available from Space Lighting in Miami.
