The Nepal Fire Pit by Fire Pit Art takes its form from ancient incense burners. Its broad, cauldron-shaped bowl, large side rings and three rounded feet give it a substantial presence without intricate cutouts. The silhouette remains distinctive when the fire is unlit, making it a natural fit for a stone terrace, garden gathering area or lodge-style courtyard.
Handcrafted in the USA from 1/4-inch-thick mild carbon steel, Nepal measures 41 inches across and 24 inches high, including its feet. Its open bowl keeps the fire visible from several directions, while the raised profile distinguishes it from a low, shallow fire dish. Choose wood, natural gas or propane to match the way you’ll use the space.

Fuel & ignition options
Nepal offers five fuel and ignition combinations:
- Wood-burning.
- Natural gas — match-lit.
- Liquid propane — match-lit.
- Natural gas — All Weather Electronic Ignition System (AWEIS).
- Liquid propane — All Weather Electronic Ignition System (AWEIS).
Wood-burning
Choose wood when building and tending the fire are part of the gathering. Allow for firewood storage, ash removal and local wood-burning restrictions. For a lodge or hospitality setting, plan who will tend the fire and handle cleanup between uses.
Match-lit gas
Natural gas and propane match-lit models keep lighting manual while avoiding the routine of adding logs and clearing wood ash. Follow the supplied lighting sequence and keep the gas controls accessible in the finished layout.
Electronic ignition with AWEIS
The All Weather Electronic Ignition System from Fire by Design adds electronic lighting and flame-sensing technology. It’s an option for buyers who prefer electronic operation, including properties where staff manage the fire feature. Confirm power requirements and compatible controls before installation.
Select the intended fuel and ignition system when ordering. Fire Pit Art makes configuration-specific modifications for gas operation; consumers must not modify a wood-burning piece for gas.
Gas burner & included components
Natural gas and propane configurations use a 24-inch stainless steel HPC Penta burner rated at 200,000 BTU/hr. The gas package includes a 39-inch-diameter burner pan, 75 pounds of lava rock and a flex-line kit. The manufacturer also lists a Dante valve with the package.
AWEIS configurations include a 24-volt AC transformer, fire module, heat shield and installation instructions. Confirm the complete connection and ignition package for your selected configuration before arranging installation.
The output rating applies to gas models, not the wood-burning version. Have a qualified installer verify that the planned fuel supply meets the burner’s requirements.

Choose your finish
Iron Oxide Patina
The standard finish develops a rust-toned appearance that gradually darkens with exposure and use. Its weathered character complements the cauldron shape, particularly alongside stone, timber and planting. Iron Oxide Patina is available on gas models and is required for wood-burning versions, which generate too much heat for powder coating.
Powder-coated colors — gas models only
Textured Black, Bronze, Mojave, Silverado and Speckled Oak offer alternatives to the weathered patina. Choose a color to coordinate with furniture frames, railings or other exterior details. Powder-coated surfaces don’t develop the same rust-toned patina, so follow the care instructions for your selected finish.
Placement & installation
Give the bowl, side rings and three-footed base room to be seen rather than hiding them behind closely packed furniture. Compare the 24-inch overall height with your chairs and sightlines. Allow for seating, circulation and fire tending while meeting the manufacturer’s required clearances.
Confirm delivery access and arrange suitable help or equipment to position the 210-pound piece. Don’t assume the side rings establish an approved lifting or suspension method; confirm handling instructions with the manufacturer.
Have a qualified installer verify the supporting surface, clearances and local requirements. An optional steel base plate does not replace those requirements or establish approval for use on a combustible deck.
Natural gas requires a suitable permanent supply. Propane needs a planned tank location and connection arrangement, while AWEIS also requires an appropriate electrical supply. For shared spaces, establish who will light, supervise and shut down the feature.
Care & optional accessories
The Iron Oxide Patina finish may arrive with a dusty, rust-colored surface and will deepen in color as the steel matures. Keep wet leaves and debris off the piece while the patina develops. Fire Pit Art advises against placing a tarp against the surface because it can interfere with oxidation, blacken the patina or transfer color to the metal.
For a powder-coated gas model, follow the care instructions supplied for that finish. Let the fire pit cool fully before cleaning or covering it.
- Artisan Spark Guard SG-40: Specifically designed for Nepal; an optional accessory for the wood-burning model.
- Steel Tabletop Lid ST43: A 43-inch carbon steel lid listed to fit Nepal. It weighs 50 pounds and has an iron-oxide patina.
- 42-inch canvas cover: Specifically listed by the manufacturer for Nepal.
- Nepal Circle Base Plate and Triple Base Plate: Optional 1/4-inch carbon steel plates designed for use beneath Nepal.
- Wood-burning fire pit grate: Listed as compatible with Nepal; intended to support firewood, not for cooking.
These accessories are sold separately. Confirm suitability for your fuel configuration and any installed ignition components before ordering. Base plates should not be assumed to prevent all heat damage or staining.
Use the steel lid as a tabletop only when the fire is out and the entire piece has cooled. Plan suitable help for handling its 50-pound weight.
Warranty
Fire Pit Art provides a 10-year structural-integrity warranty for carbon steel fire pits for the original purchaser. The iron-oxide finish and saltwater environments are excluded, as are shipping and handling charges associated with warranty service. Damage to surrounding surfaces or furnishings is not covered. Confirm finish coverage separately if you select a powder-coated gas model.
Burners, gas components and electronic ignition systems have separate terms, with some coverage differing between residential and commercial use. Review Fire Pit Art’s warranty information for complete coverage and exclusions, and confirm the terms applicable to your selected configuration.
