Arteflame Classic 40" Stainless Steel Grill

Overview

The Arteflame Classic 40" Stainless Steel Grill combines live-fire cooking, outdoor entertaining, and sculptural design in one striking centerpiece.

Part of Arteflame's Platinum Series, this American-made grill features a seamless spun stainless-steel fire bowl surrounded by an expansive 40-inch circular cooking surface. The central fire naturally creates multiple heat zones across the cooktop, giving you the flexibility to sear closer to the center while preparing more delicate foods farther away.

Its circular layout changes the way outdoor cooking feels. Instead of separating the cook from the gathering, the Arteflame invites everyone around the fire and makes meal preparation part of the experience.

When cooking is finished, remove the cooktop and the grill transitions into an elegant outdoor fire bowl for continued entertaining.

Available with No Base, Low Euro Base, or Low Round Base, the Classic 40" Stainless Steel Grill can be configured to suit built-in installations, modern architectural settings, or clean standalone outdoor spaces.

Key Features

• Three Base Configurations — Choose No Base, Low Euro Base, or Low Round Base to match your installation and design preferences.
• Made in the USA — Designed and manufactured in the United States.

Why This Product Stands Out

Most outdoor grills are designed first as appliances.

The Arteflame is designed as both a cooking system and an architectural element.

Its circular cooktop surrounds the fire rather than placing the flame behind a closed grill body. This creates a more interactive style of outdoor cooking while giving the user access to naturally different temperature zones.

Move food toward the center when you want more heat.

Move it outward when you want gentler cooking.

That simple geometry allows several ingredients and cooking styles to share the same surface at once.

The Platinum Series stainless-steel construction adds another layer of distinction. Compared with Arteflame's CORTEN models, the stainless version has a brighter, more contemporary visual character that works especially well in modern landscapes, pool areas, and design-forward outdoor kitchens.

And unlike a conventional grill that becomes visually inactive after dinner, the Arteflame can continue serving as the center of the gathering when the cooktop is removed and the fire remains.

Specifications

Who This Is For

The Arteflame Classic 40" Stainless Steel Grill is ideal for buyers who want outdoor cooking equipment to become part of the design and social experience of the space.

It is particularly well suited for:

• Luxury patios
• Contemporary landscapes
• Poolside entertaining areas
• Outdoor kitchens
• Courtyards
• Vacation properties
• High-end backyard renovations
• Homeowners who entertain frequently
• Live-fire cooking enthusiasts
• Buyers who value architectural outdoor design

It is also a strong choice for someone who does not want to choose between a grill and a fire feature.

The Arteflame is designed to serve as both.

Choose Your Base

No Base

The No Base configuration is designed for custom installations.

It is the best choice when incorporating the Arteflame into:

• Masonry
• Custom outdoor kitchens
• Architectural platforms
• Bespoke landscape designs

This configuration gives designers and homeowners the greatest freedom to integrate the fire bowl into an existing structure.

Low Euro Base

The Low Euro Base gives the grill a more sculptural, contemporary presentation.

Its geometric form creates a distinctive architectural foundation and works particularly well in modern outdoor environments.

Choose this version when the visual design of the base is an important part of the overall installation.

Low Round Base

The Low Round Base creates a simpler, softer silhouette.

Its circular geometry visually complements the fire bowl and cooktop, producing a clean standalone configuration that works across a wide range of patio and landscape styles.

Choose this version if you prefer a more understated foundation beneath the grill.

Platinum Series Stainless Steel

The defining visual difference of the Platinum Series is its stainless-steel fire bowl.

Where Arteflame's Classic CORTEN models develop a weathered steel patina, the Platinum Series offers a brighter, more refined contemporary appearance.

That makes it particularly attractive in environments featuring:

• Stainless-steel outdoor appliances
• Modern architecture
• Light stone
• Concrete
• Glass
• Contemporary pool decks
• Minimalist landscaping

The grill functions as a cooking system, but visually it can also serve as part of the permanent design language of the space.

Live-Fire Cooking with Multiple Heat Zones

The central fire creates different temperatures across the cooking surface.

Closer to the center, heat is more intense.

Farther toward the outside edge, temperatures are lower.

This allows foods requiring different levels of heat to be cooked at the same time.

For example, one area can be used for higher-temperature cooking while another handles vegetables, breads, or other ingredients requiring gentler heat.

Instead of repeatedly moving food on and off a single-temperature grate, the cook can use the entire surface strategically.

Cooking Becomes Part of the Gathering

The circular layout is one of the Arteflame's most distinctive qualities.

Traditional grills typically place the cook behind the equipment.

Arteflame places the fire in the center of the experience.

Guests can gather around the cooking surface, watch food being prepared, and remain part of the conversation.

That makes the grill especially appealing for homeowners who view outdoor cooking as part of entertaining rather than simply meal preparation.

From Grill to Fire Bowl

When dinner is finished, the Arteflame does not have to stop being useful.

Remove the cooktop and the stainless-steel bowl becomes an open fire feature.

That allows the same centerpiece to transition naturally from:

Cooking → Dining → Evening Fire

For entertainment-focused outdoor spaces, this dual-purpose design can eliminate the need for separate grilling and fire-pit areas.

Expand the Cooking Experience

The Classic 40" can be expanded with compatible Arteflame accessories.

Optional equipment can include:

• Pizza oven
• Rotisserie
• Other compatible Arteflame cooking accessories

These additions allow the same core grill to support a wider variety of live-fire cooking techniques.
