Chiminea ~ A Functional Work of Art

Beautiful as well as functional, a chiminea is a true work of art.

Warming the feet as well as the soul, everyone will take pleasure gathering around this focal point of your outdoor retreat.

A chimenea (chim-ih-nee-ah) (also spelled chiminea) is a freestanding, front-loading outdoor fireplace or oven with a vertical smoke vent or chimney.

Originally developed as a means of heating, cooking, and baking, the chimenea was specifically designed to keep the rain off the fire. They have been used for hundreds if not thousands of years by Mexican tribesmen.

Be careful in purchasing a clay chiminea. Although popular as a deck accessory, the ones made of clay are rarely able to withstand the sudden temperature change during a rainshower which can cause cracking and flaking.

Cast iron and aluminum chimeneas are your best option for durable and unique outdoor fireplaces.
