Description
Surface Protection in Natural Form
Shaped by nature. Perfected by hand. The Limestone Fire Pit Base from Fire Pit Art features a unique yellow and brown swirled appearance from iron stains and natural weathering.
Formed over centuries in only one place on earth – the Cumberland Plateau – Crab Orchard stone is an especially hard, weather resistant variety of sandstone due to unusually high concentrations of silica.
Striking Color Formations
The stone’s exclusive buff, tan, blue-gray and pink colors were formed thanks to a combination of iron, titanium and magnesium. The yellow and brown swirls that give the stone its one-of-a-kind appearance come from iron stains and natural weathering.
Dimensions: approx. 32"L x 31"W x 1" to 3" thick
Dimensions may vary slightly. Due to naturally occurring variations in colored stone, each slab will have its own unique pattern and shade.
Why You'll Love It
- Premium Material: Variegated limestone flagstone
- Versatile Placement: Place on a deck, patio, or any surface where you want protection from fire pit heat
Do Not Tarp Your Fire Pit
A tarp will cause the patina to blacken and stop the oxidation process. In many cases, the color of the tarp will transfer to the new steel.
During the maturing process keep wet leaves and debris off the piece until the steel matures. Allow the piece to mature with each fire.

Hard-to-Reach Addresses for Pallet Shipments
- Most LTL carriers use a standard 28-foot trailer, and it is the driver's discretion if they can safely drive down your street.
- For hard-to-reach addresses (i.e., narrow or dead-end streets) or unusual driveway configurations, some carriers may charge extra or require the shipment to be "rescued" by a different carrier. If this happens, we'll relay the additional cost for which you are responsible.
Help prevent an unplanned extra cost by using the Order & Delivery Instructions box on the Shopping Cart page to give us a heads up about any potential delivery considerations before the order is ready to ship.
➤ When in doubt, opt for the Threshold Upgrade, as this covers a lot of tricky delivery requirements with the freight carrier.
Misc. Delivery Terms (pallet shipments only)
| Special Instructions | If there are special delivery instructions for the freight carrier, please let us know at the time of order so accommodations may be made. There may be additional charges for special requests or you may need to make your own delivery accommodations once the piece arrives to your area. This is especially true for high-rise buildings. Cancellation of an order after it arrives and is subsequently determined to be undeliverable is subject to courtesy partial refund only after a Policy Exception is authorized. |
| Delivery Appt. & Holds/Storage | Similar to furniture deliveries, the carrier may call you before delivery to schedule drop off. If you commit to an appointment and are not present to accept delivery, or if you confirm a delivery date and subsequently reschedule, a re-delivery fee may be charged for which you are responsible. If the carrier must hold your pallet beyond their standard courtesy period, you are responsible for any storage fees. If a shipment is at risk of being returned to the design studio because you cannot be reached, Fountainful may update the service level to No Signature Required to spare you from shipping costs should a pallet be returned. |
| Change of Address | Any fee charged by the carrier for a change/re-consign of the original delivery address is your responsibility. |
| Forklift |
A small handful of items will require you to agree to the Forklift Delivery Terms before you can add the item to your cart. In these cases, the pallet(s) cannot be lowered on the lift gate and must be removed from the truck with a forklift. Plan ahead by contacting a local contractor or small equipment rental outfit (e.g., Lowes) if you're not already working with a landscaper who has this equipment. |
Always inspect your delivery. See the Refund Policy for a Delivery Inspection Checklist.
Art Sculptures You Can Use
Fire Pit Art was born out of a bad experience by its founder – Rick Wittrig purchased a fire pit from a box retail store that subsequently fell apart and set his yard on fire!
Manufactured in Tennessee, the precision cut products from Fire Pit Art are regarded as among the highest quality in the world, and have even been used in a Winter Olympics Village.
You might also spot their fire pits at Dollywood or in The Golden Gate Bridge recreation area.
