Fire pits are designed to contain fire and keep it from spreading, making the flame a source of warmth and light. Fire pits frequently adorn porches, back patios, and camping spots burning wood or fuel like natural gas, propane, or bio ethanol. People have been gathering around fire for centuries, to eat, to drink, to tell stories, or to just spend time together. Continue the ancient tradition in your own backyard with a patio fire pit from sellers on Etsy.
