Corten Steel Fire Pit – The Obelisk

The Corten Steel Fire Pit That Makes a Statement Before You Even Light It

Product Description

There are fire pits that sit in your garden. And then there's the Obelisk — a fire pit that commands it.

Standing 1500 mm tall with a bold tapered pyramid form, the Obelisk is the most architecturally striking fire pit in the Outdoor Escape range. Its clean geometric lines draw the eye upward, turning an empty corner of your patio or garden into a genuine focal point. During the day, it reads as sculpture. After dark, with the fire burning through the open firebox and light escaping through the decorative cut pattern, it becomes something else entirely.

Despite its height and presence, the Obelisk is surprisingly easy to work with. At just 23 kg — the lightest in the range — it can be positioned and repositioned without help. The 450 x 450 mm base keeps the footprint compact, so it works in smaller spaces without feeling out of scale.

Like every fire pit in this range, it's built from genuine Corten weathering steel. The raw steel surface gradually develops a rich rust-bronze patina as it weathers — a natural process that requires no maintenance and produces a finish that only gets richer with time. The open firebox design optimises airflow for a steady, even burn, and a 5-year warranty backs the build quality for the long term.

If you want a fire pit that earns its place in the garden as much for how it looks as for the warmth it provides, the Obelisk is it.

Why This Fire Pit Is Worth It

The shape does the work for you. Most fire pits need surrounding furniture, lighting, and landscaping to look intentional. The Obelisk's pyramid silhouette is so architecturally strong it anchors a space on its own. Put it in a bare corner, and that corner suddenly has a reason to exist.

At 1500 mm, it has real presence. This is the tallest fire pit in the range — and at garden level, that height makes a significant difference to how the fire is seen and experienced from seating. The flame sits higher, the light travels further, and the whole thing feels more dramatic.

It's lighter than it looks. 23 kg means you can move it yourself without needing a hand. That matters at setup, when you change your outdoor layout, or if you want to use it in different spots across the seasons.

The cut pattern earns its keep at night. Once the fire is going and the light starts escaping through the decorative cutouts, the Obelisk does something no plain fire pit can — it turns the surrounding space into part of the experience. The patterns it casts shift with the flame.

Corten steel is maintenance-free by design. The patina that forms is the protective layer — there's nothing to apply, renew, or touch up. It weathers, it matures, and it keeps getting better looking. Five years from now it'll have a depth and richness that no coated product can replicate.
