Fire Pit Art Handcrafted Fire Pits

Flames curl through hand-cut carbon steel, casting shadow patterns across the patio as the sun sets. That's the kind of moment a Fire Pit Art fire pit creates, not just warmth, but a visual experience you won't find in a mass-produced fire bowl. 

Every piece is handcrafted in Lebanon, Tennessee by artisan Rick Wittrig, using ¼" thick carbon steel that's signed, numbered, and built for decades outdoors.

The collection spans wood burning, natural gas, and propane models, from low-profile bowls to towering sculptural globes. Fire Pit Surplus carries the full Fire Pit Art lineup with authorized dealer support and expert guidance for homeowners, designers, and hospitality professionals.

How to Choose the Right Fire Pit Art Fire Pit

Design & Shape

  • Bowl-style models like the Saturn and Magnum sit low and wide, making them ideal for round fire pit layouts with seating arranged on all sides.
  • Globe designs like the Third Rock and Crater stand tall and create a 360-degree flame display, serving as a sculptural visual anchor rather than a traditional gathering pit.
  • Consider your sightlines and seating arrangement first, bowls invite people to lean in, while globes are best admired from a few feet back.

Fuel Type

  • Wood burning delivers the traditional campfire experience with crackling flame, natural smoke, and the ability to cook over an open fire.
  • Natural gas is the cleanest option for permanent installations, connecting directly to your home gas line for an uninterrupted fuel supply.
  • Propane offers portability and flexibility for spaces without a gas hookup. Compare wood burning fire pits and gas fire pits to find your fit.

Size & Scale

  • Smaller patios and intimate seating areas pair well with 36"–41" models like the Saturn or Crater, which provide ample flame without overwhelming the space.
  • Large backyards, estate properties, or commercial fire pit projects call for the 54" Magnum, which anchors bigger layouts with its commanding footprint.
  • Measure your available clearance before ordering, Fire Pit Art recommends at least 10 feet of open space around any fire feature for safe, comfortable use.

Ignition System

  • Match-lit ignition is the simplest option, with fewer components to maintain and a straightforward manual light every time.
  • The AWEIS electronic ignition adds push-button convenience with a 24-volt transformer and wind-resistant flame sensing for reliable starts in any weather.
  • Choose AWEIS (All-Weather Electronic Ignition System) if you plan to use your fire pit frequently or in exposed, windy locations where consistent ignition matters most.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Fire Pit Art fire pits made in the USA?

Yes. Every piece is handcrafted in Lebanon, Tennessee by artisan metalworker Rick Wittrig. Each fire pit is individually signed and numbered on a brass plate, confirming its American-made authenticity. The brand uses domestically sourced ¼" mild carbon steel for all models.

What fuel types do Fire Pit Art fire pits use?

Models are available in wood burning, natural gas, and liquid propane. Gas versions include HPC's patented Penta stainless steel burner, lava rock, whistle-free flex line, Dante valve, and burner plate. Wood burning models require no gas components and burn standard firewood directly in the bowl.

How does the iron oxide patina change over time?

The patina starts as a dusty, powdery rust tone and darkens with each fire into a rich mahogany. Wood fires accelerate the maturing process due to higher flame temperatures. Once fully matured, the color becomes permanent and requires zero maintenance, no sealing, no recoating.

How much does a Fire Pit Art fire pit weigh?

Weights range from 135 lbs. for the Saturn to 270 lbs. for the Magnum. All models ship via insured freight LTL curbside delivery on a pallet, and most require two people to move into final position on your patio or deck.

Does Fire Pit Art offer electronic ignition?

Yes. The AWEIS (All-Weather Electronic Ignition System) is available on all gas models as an upgrade over standard match-lit. It includes a 24-volt AC transformer, fire module, and heat shield designed to keep your flame lit even in windy or wet conditions.
