Stainless Steel Fire Pits -Decor for your urban patio
Author: pitsfire | Posted: 06.02.2012When you live in the city, you are always under pressure to decorate as such. Where is it written that all of your furniture and decorative accents must pass the litmus test of an imaginary gaggle of urban interior decorators, simply because you have a city address? Nowhere. But still, it’s hard to escape the feeling that wicker furniture or rustic oak look built-ins look a tad ridiculous in your city condo or apartment. If you want to enjoy country ambiance, you can go visit your family in the suburbs, thank you very much. In the city, it’s all industrial chic, all the time. That means modern furniture indoors and out, minimal accessories, and stainless steel appliances galore, and the looks carries over to your deck, too.
If you’re investigating fire features, stainless steel fire pits are a natural choice. Paired with a chrome patio furniture set, parties on your patio will be dripping with sophistication, just like the patio of any good city mouse should! Appearances aren’t all that count, though. Stainless steel fire pits are immensely appealing because of their ease of ownership. They’re easy to clean. You simply need to soap up and water down stainless steel fire pits once in a while. Don’t forget to dry yours thoroughly, too. They are also very rust-resistant. Unlike other metal fire pits, stainless steel fire pits won’t become tarnished from the elements or rust in moist weather conditions. It’s a good idea to store steel fire pits away when you’re not using them, but don’t worry if you leave yours out a few nights in a row. It can take it.
One fire pit style certainly does not fit all. Be sure to allow plenty of time surveying all of your options before making your purchase. You can certainly opt for a wood-burning stainless steel fire pit. If you can’t part with the scent of a natural fire, be sure you look for stainless steel fire pits that are made specifically for that purpose. Many stainless steel firepits are gas-burning. Gas and stainless steel are natural companions, as both are a departure from the more primitive style of fire-building. You know, the one that required logs and brush for kindling?
If you’re interested in modern, urban alternatives to stainless steel, never fear: there are many other equally chic options available to you. A granite fire table, for instance, is just as sophisticated as stainless steel. But it’s a very different look that may suit your tastes a lot better. Fire pits built with clean lines and fashioned into simple shapes are natural accessories for city patios, too. And what if you don’t have an outdoor living area at your city digs? Well, you could move. But why take such drastic measures when there are plenty of portable indoor fire place options available to you? These ultra-modern displays let you enjoy a fire indoors, no brick-and-mortar chimney required!
