There are more and more braziers present in the gardens and on the terraces.
If their original function is light a fire to warm up when it's cool outside and thus be able to enjoy life outdoors even in autumn and winter, they are also a decorative element in its own right even when they are turned off.
The most common models are round or square and black. Not quite enough to differentiate you from your next e gives a real touch of originality to your garden.
Fortunately they exist models out of the ordinaryI will introduce them to you in this article.
The ball brazier
These braziers are doubly original: for their spherical shape and thanks to patterns cut into metal.
A wide variety of designs exists: plants, animals, forest scenes with deer and trees, or even geometric shapes.
Thanks to the decorations, these fire pits are aesthetic even when they are turned off. And when night falls, the flames continue to highlight the drawings.
Most are produced in Italy corten steel. This is a steel that has a rusty appearance.
This is the case of the model that I selected for you and of which you have the photo next to it. This is the reference FF294 from Esschert Design

The brazier with fireplace
I like this type of fire pit because their slim shape brings volume to a layout.
They also have a practical advantage: the fireplace directs the smoke upwards. This limits the risk of the wind blowing into your face.
Unlike the low braziers that you place in the center of a terrace with seating all around, I recommend placing these models with a fireplace on the sideso you don't have the duct in your field of vision when you talk to your guests.
There are models with chimneys in a round or pyramidal version. I find Blumfeldt's Volantis cute and that's it the spark arrester is a guarantee of safety.

The Mexican brazier
The Mexican brazier is a traditional model that it will bring character on your exterior.
It has a fireplace and is composed of terracotta.
Terracotta is refractory, which allows it to accumulate heat and then release it.
There are Mexican fireplaces in the rough terracotta colorothers are colored and some did relief decorations.
There are also variants in black metal for a more modern look, but in this case the traditional side is lost.
They are available in all sizes.
I gave you an example of a small-sized model that will easily fit into small spaces: the Tampico by RedFire.

The plancha brazier
We are finding more and more fire pits that double as planchas. In fact, these are round models with a wide edge on which you will cook the food.
And I would like to immediately make a small interlude on this matter barbecue braziers.
As you know, the principle of barbecue is to place food on a grill directly above the heat source. And we avoid as much as possible that they are in contact with the flames, it is the embers we are looking for.
So, if you opt for a brazier with barbecueyou will not be able to enjoy the fire while cooking food.
This is why the plancha fire pits are much more practical : you make a real fire in the center, without the flames touching the grills placed laterally on the metal cooking part.
I especially appreciate models that are a souththey are much more practical than those close to the ground for cooking food.
This is the case of the Purline reference EFP56CO that I photographed for you.

The gas brazier
We rarely talk about gas braziers, yet they have the advantage of being so very easy to use with a instant ignition.
The other interest is being able to start with shapes that we don't see especially in the wooden versions full length.
You can buy a complete gas brazier or fire tray only to integrate it into a homemade creation.
The model I imagined for you, HF48708AA-EU by Teamson Home, has the advantage of being able to provide assistance table bassTHE the flames are adjustable and the protective glass guarantees maximum safety.

The Hublot brazier
This time I am not presenting you with a category of braziers but with a particular model for which I had one squash : the Hublot creation from the manufacturer Buschbeck.
What distinguishes it from others?
The part where the wood is burned forms a vertical circle. It is clearly a model that will attract attention on your terrace.

The brazier with wood reserve
Since most fire pits require wood to operate, why not choose one with a integrated log reserve ?
Two main versions can be distinguished.
Those with a cubic reserve surmounted by the classic round or square brazier.
Those that form a table in which the part with the fire is integrated. These are the more originalalthough they are harder to find in stores. I found one on the internet: the AGtrema Compŏsĭtus.

The stone brazier
From the beginning I have talked a lot about metal fire pits, but why not choose one calculation ?
If you are familiar with bricklaying, you can make it yourself, but if you want to save time, there are ready-made templates.
The most economically convenient are those of the Blumfeldt brand, but before continuing I must make a confession: they are not actually made of stone but in rock-like material. And this choice is not without reason: it allows them to stay light and therefore be easily mobile.
This is the case of the Troja model with its appearance reminiscent of gray granite.

The basket of fire
Braziers are braziers made up of vertical metal blades.
This design allows for shed light and get the most flame show.
However, I see a disadvantage: the ash can fall to the ground.
Fortunately, some models come with a basic place below. This is the case of the XL fire pit from the Relaxdays brand.
