Large Clay Chimineas For Sale

Chimineas made of clay need to be protected from weather. Clay chimineas can be damaged or brittle when left in the cold and rain.

Chimineas that are frequently used should be filled with 50mm of sand or Gardeco lava stones (see Accessories above). This will reduce contact between the chiminea and direct flames. It also allows the material to adapt to the uneven heat.

Size

A chimenea is the ideal size for most patios and gardens. The clay structure warms up and radiates the warmth into the area, providing a cozy fire and ambience. They also serve as wood-burning stoves that efficiently consume a variety of aromatic woods that emit beautiful natural aromas.

Smaller designs that taper to a chimney are ideal for smaller spaces. There are a number of attractive colors that provide an attractive accent. They can be used to cook food over an open fire, adding an extra level of fun to a backyard party.

Chimineas are painted by hand, so they may discolor slightly over time or if kept outside for long periods of time. If this is the case paint can be lightly sanded down and then repainted using an external paint that is based on emulsions, but this isn't normally necessary.

Some clay chimeneas are supplied with a chrome BBQ grill, which allows you to cook food over an open flame. This allows you to enjoy the ambiance of an open flame while cooking and adds an additional layer of flavour that isn't possible with gas or electric cookers.

In contrast to chimineas made of metal, clay chimineas are much more safe to touch if they are hot because the temperature is spread over a wider surface. This will also stop the inner clay from cracking because of excessive heat. It is recommended to place 50mm of sand (or Gardeco lava stone) on the bottom to stop the clay from coming into contact with the hottest part and to create a uniform heat pattern.

Chimineas are an environmentally friendly alternative to gas grills and are suitable for a wide variety of fuel types like natural gas, propane, and charcoal. Chimineas are especially effective when employed with aromatic woods such as Apple, Cherry, and Yew that burn slow and produce less ash. Cover the chimenea if it is not in use. This will shield it from rain or snow.

Design

A chimenea made of clay can be an ideal addition to any patio. The clay is fire-resistant and the design allows for an uncluttered, non-smoking fire. They are built with a large base that tapers into a chimney and stack. The chimney captures the flame and holds it up so that it can warm your outdoor space. A number of chimineas clay come with decorative details that enhance their appearance and adds a beautiful finishing finish to your garden or patio. A chimenea can be the ideal option for those with a limited space, and who would like the warmth of a fireplace outdoors.

Chimeneas can also be used to cook. Certain models have an integrated barbecue that can be used to cook food over the fire. The adobe or clay material absorbs the heat and radiates it outward and you don't have to create a large fire to keep your food hot. They are also less difficult than chimineas made of metal to maintain because they can be easily cleaned and are less susceptible to corrosion.

LB's large selection of clay chimineas offers a variety of designs and colors to select from. The Wrapped With Iron chiminea is a prime example. The chiminea has a design that incorporates the iron often found in Mexican pottery and accentuates the piece with an original iron design on the lid and stack. The Serene chiminea is another example of a clay chiminea which is more traditional in its look and features a smaller bowl. It is available in soft colors and has an iron stand that supports the base and stack.

Chimineas are handmade and hand-painted, so the style and color can vary slightly from one item to the next. If they are properly cared for they will withstand high temperatures and last for a long time. When not in use they should be covered to guard the clay from rain and snow.

Function

A chimenea provides a safe option to have a fire outside and will also add ambiance and light to your outdoor space. Since centuries, they have been used to provide warmth and light. Today, you can use them as a focal point for your garden or patio. They are simple to use and a good choice for people who want the advantages of an outdoor fire without the dangers associated with an open flame.

Chimineas made of clay can be constructed from kiln-fired or kiln-baked clay and coated with a waterproof layer to ensure their durability. They are made and fired in small local factories that aid the economy and communities in Mexico. They are kiln fired at high temperatures to eliminate any organic or water-based material in the clay. This minimizes the possibility of the clay cracking because of thermal shock.

A large portion of our chimineas have an area for cooking that allows you to grill food over the fire. This is an excellent feature for those who like to cook and entertain at the same time and can add a touch of fun and flavour to the meals you have with your family and friends.

It is recommended to start with a small fire when you first start using your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. It is essential to start small because the clay acts like a radiator. If you start large the temperature will quickly rise. This could cause cracks in the clay as it isn't used to the heat.

Wrapped With Iron is one of the many designs within our huge range of clay. This design is a classic clay look and feel of Mexican pottery, but with an accent of iron on the lid and on the stack. This design comes with a removable stand and chimney cover.

We also have the Honeycomb design clay chiminea which provides a more contemporary fire pit with chiminea pit with a crossed pattern on the stack and bowl. The model is lighter in colour with softer tones and includes an adjustable chimney cover and stand.

Maintenance

Chimineas made from clay, are prone to cracking. This is not a major problem, but it could cause a negative impact on the appearance and performance. It is crucial to maintain the chiminea correctly in order to prevent this. This means cleaning it frequently and applying a sealant to protect it. It is also important to properly store your chiminea to prevent damage from cold temperatures and moisture.

One of the primary reasons for cracks in a chiminea is careless handling. A chiminea is like an enormous piece of fine china, and it should be handled carefully. Avoid dropping it or not letting it touch anything that is likely to ignite, or firing it while it is hot. A dealer once told me that he didn't even guarantee his chimineas against breakage since most of them were broken due to careless handling before they had been fired up once!

The use of water to put out fires is another frequent cause of cracks in Chimineas. Clay is prone to sudden temperature changes and pouring hot water onto a clay chiminea can cause stress cracks and thermal shock. The best method to extinguish a chiminea is to let the fire naturally die or to employ sand to extinguish it safely.

When you are buying a new biggest chiminea, it is important to pick one that comes with an appropriate stand. It will be simpler to clean and will enhance the look of your yard. Chimineas without stands can be difficult to move, especially in the event of stormy or rainy. You can also purchase a poker that will help you move the logs and a brush to remove soot and ash.

When you first purchase your chiminea it must be "cured" (broken into) slowly. Start with small fires and increase the size of the logs gradually. As time passes, the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea will also be more efficient at holding a larger, controlled fire. After three or four small fires, it is possible to begin making larger-sized fires with confidence. However, it is still important to monitor the size of your fire, and not allow it to get too large or get out of control.
