Grillstream QSF557/CMC05WBS

This chiminea is constructed from Corten steel, designed to weather naturally and develop a protective rust layer over time. It features an ash tray and vent for easy ash removal, and a log grid for wood placement. The chiminea is intended for outdoor use only and is heated by burning natural wood or heat logs. It requires assembly using provided fixings and is designed to be placed on a heat-proof mat to protect surrounding surfaces from potential staining during the initial rusting period.
