Overview
Bring the beauty of nature and the elemental character of fire together with the Fire Flower Artisan Fire Bowl from the Ohio Flame Artisan Collection.
Inspired by the organic simplicity and elegance of a blooming flower, the Fire Flower transforms substantial American steel into a graceful outdoor sculpture. Its distinctive petal-inspired silhouette creates visual interest during the day, while fire gives the design an entirely different personality after dark.
Designed and crafted by Ohio artisan Matt Skillman, this redesigned Fire Flower pairs its signature botanical form with Ohio Flame's Liberty Standard Base, creating a substantial foundation beneath the sculptural bowl.
Each Fire Flower is handcrafted to order from American carbon steel sourced from local mills and is available in three impressive sizes: 30", 37", and 41" diameters.
The largest stands 27" high, features a dramatic 20.5" bowl depth, and weighs approximately 224 pounds.
With no moving parts to break or wear out, the Fire Flower relies on straightforward construction and substantial steel. Its Natural Patina Finish gradually darkens and evolves with outdoor exposure, adding another organic element to a design already inspired by nature.
Proudly 100% American made, artisan crafted, and backed by Ohio Flame's Lifetime Warranty, the Fire Flower isn't simply a place to build a fire.
It's a flower sculpted from American steel and brought to life by flame.

Why This Product Stands Out
Traditional fire pits tend to rely on circles, bowls, and simple geometric forms.
The Fire Flower looks to nature instead.
Its petal-inspired silhouette introduces softer, organic lines into a material normally associated with strength and industrial construction.
That contrast is central to its character.
Heavy American steel becomes a flower.
Then fire transforms it again.
As flames rise from within the sculptural bowl, they become part of the composition, visually bringing the Fire Flower to life.
The result is a fire feature that can work particularly well in landscapes where gardens, stone, water, trees, and architecture have already been thoughtfully integrated.
Rather than simply placing a fire pit into that environment, the Fire Flower becomes part of it.

Which Size Is Right for Your Space?
30" Fire Flower — Organic Design at a Versatile Scale
At 30" in diameter x 20" high, the smallest Fire Flower introduces the collection's petal-inspired silhouette without requiring an expansive outdoor setting. Its 15" bowl depth, .148" steel construction, and approximately 80-pound weight still provide substantial presence.
37" Fire Flower — Dramatic Garden Sculpture
The 37" model increases considerably in scale. Standing 23" high with an 18.5" bowl depth, it uses .185" steel and weighs approximately 214 pounds. This size is particularly well suited for larger patios, landscaped gardens, and poolside environments.
41" Fire Flower — Maximum Botanical Presence
The largest model measures 41" in diameter x 27" high, incorporates a dramatic 20.5" bowl depth, and is constructed from .203" steel. At approximately 224 pounds, it has the scale to become a defining element within a substantial outdoor landscape.

Inspired by Nature
The Fire Flower takes one of nature's most familiar forms and interprets it through a very different material.
Rather than delicate petals, the sculpture is formed from substantial American carbon steel.
The contrast creates much of the Fire Flower's visual appeal:
organic form meets industrial material.
Its petal-like profile can complement gardens and natural landscapes while remaining bold enough for contemporary architecture, concrete patios, modern pool environments, and minimalist outdoor spaces.
When the Flower Meets Fire
The Fire Flower has two distinct personalities.
During daylight, it functions as a substantial piece of outdoor metal sculpture.
After dark, fire changes the composition.
Flames rise from within the bowl and interact with its petal-inspired form, adding movement, light, and shadow.
That makes the Fire Flower particularly compelling in spaces designed to transition from daytime landscaping to evening entertaining.
Liberty Standard Base
This redesigned Fire Flower incorporates Ohio Flame's Liberty Standard Base.
The solid base visually anchors the organic upper form, creating a balanced relationship between the substantial foundation and the more expressive sculptural bowl.
For customers comparing Fire Flower configurations, the Standard Base provides the more grounded and substantial interpretation of the design.
A Finish Designed to Change
A sculpture inspired by nature shouldn't necessarily remain visually frozen in time.
The Fire Flower's Natural Patina Finish develops an iron oxide patina as the steel encounters the outdoor environment.
Its appearance gradually darkens and evolves, introducing natural variation into each handcrafted piece.
That aging process becomes part of the aesthetic rather than something that needs to be continually refinished away.
Substantial American Steel
Despite its graceful inspiration, the Fire Flower is anything but delicate.
Each size is crafted from American carbon steel sourced from local mills:
- 30" — .148" steel / approximately 80 lbs.
- 37" — .185" steel / approximately 214 lbs.
- 41" — .203" steel / approximately 224 lbs.
The significant weights of the larger models reinforce the Fire Flower's identity as a substantial landscape feature rather than lightweight seasonal décor.
Integrated Rain Drain
An integrated Rain Drain allows water to escape from the deep fire bowl rather than simply accumulating inside.
Ohio Flame also includes a 4" Round Blocking Plate with Standard Length Centering Tee, allowing the drain opening to be closed when desired and helping prevent ash from falling through it.
Fire Flower vs. Lunar
The Fire Flower and Lunar share the Liberty Standard Base and the same available dimensions, but their design personalities are distinctly different.
Fire Flower — Organic & Botanical
Inspired by the form of a blooming flower. Its softer, petal-like silhouette is especially compelling in landscaped gardens, natural settings, and outdoor spaces where organic design plays an important role.
Lunar — Celestial & Asymmetric
Inspired by the waning moon. Its eclipsing silhouette emphasizes open space, shadow, and a more celestial, contemporary character.
Choose the Fire Flower for a nature-inspired sculptural statement.
Choose the Lunar for a more celestial and asymmetric interpretation of outdoor fire.
Who This Is For
The Fire Flower Artisan Fire Bowl is designed for homeowners and designers who want their fire feature to contribute meaningfully to the landscape.
It's particularly well suited for:
- Luxury patios
- Landscaped gardens
- Poolside environments
- Outdoor entertaining areas
- Architect-designed landscapes
- Courtyards
- Contemporary homes
- Rustic-modern properties
- Vacation and second homes
- Custom landscape installations
- Buyers prioritizing American-made products
- Customers who appreciate artisan metalwork
- Outdoor spaces where nature and architecture intersect
For buyers seeking organic form, American craftsmanship, substantial steel, and an outdoor sculpture that becomes even more expressive when filled with fire, the Fire Flower offers a distinctive alternative to a conventional fire pit.
Care & Ownership
The Fire Flower's Natural Patina Finish is designed to evolve, so darkening and variations in the appearance of the steel should be expected.
Periodically remove excess ash and debris and keep the Rain Drain clear whenever drainage is desired.
Always allow the steel, fire, and ashes to cool completely before cleaning or handling the blocking plate.
Because the larger models weigh approximately 214 and 224 pounds, determine the final location and appropriate supporting surface before placement whenever practical.
Follow Ohio Flame's complete installation, care, clearance, and operating instructions.
Important Safety Information
The Fire Flower is an outdoor wood-burning fire feature.
Always:
- Use outdoors in an appropriately open location.
- Position on a stable, suitable non-combustible surface.
- Maintain appropriate clearances from structures, furniture, landscaping, and combustible materials.
- Follow applicable local fire and outdoor-burning regulations.
- Never leave an active fire unattended.
- Keep children and pets appropriately supervised.
- Remember that the steel can become extremely hot.
- Never attempt to move the Fire Flower while operating or hot.
- Allow the fire, steel, and ashes to cool completely before cleaning.
