Overview
Make fire the centerpiece of your outdoor space with The Liberty American Fire Pit by Ohio Flame, an artisan-crafted fire feature built around substantial American steel, timeless design, and remarkable simplicity.
With its bold linear profile and heavy-duty construction, The Liberty has the visual presence to anchor everything from an intimate patio to an expansive outdoor entertaining area.
Each fire pit is crafted from thick American carbon steel sourced from local mills, with no moving parts or complicated mechanisms to break or wear out over time. Available in five sizes from 24" to 48" in diameter, The Liberty offers a scale for nearly every outdoor environment.
Its Natural Steel Finish is designed to evolve. Exposure to the outdoors gradually creates an iron oxide patina, darkening the steel and giving each fire pit its own distinctive character.
An integrated Rain Drain helps water escape from the bowl, while an included 4" Round Blocking Plate with Standard Length Centering Tee gives you the option to close the drain when desired.
Proudly 100% American made and artisan crafted, The Liberty is more than a seasonal patio accessory. It's a substantial outdoor fire feature designed to become part of the landscape.

Why This Product Stands Out
The Liberty takes a fundamentally different approach from lightweight, mass-produced fire pits.
There are no elaborate mechanisms, unnecessary moving components, or decorative panels attempting to imitate substantial construction.
Instead, Ohio Flame starts with thick American carbon steel and lets the material, craftsmanship, and form speak for themselves.
Even the finish embraces this philosophy.
Rather than requiring the steel to maintain a factory-new appearance, The Liberty's Natural Steel Finish is intended to develop character. As the surface oxidizes, a darker patina gradually emerges, creating an appearance that becomes increasingly integrated with its outdoor environment.
And as the fire pits increase in size, their construction becomes even more substantial.
The 42" model weighs approximately 186 pounds and uses 1/4" thick steel, while the commanding 48" Liberty weighs approximately 245 pounds.
This isn't simply patio décor.
It's an American-made steel fire feature with the scale and presence to anchor an outdoor living space.

Which Size Is Right for Your Space?
24" — Compact & Intimate
At approximately 43 pounds, the smallest Liberty brings authentic Ohio Flame craftsmanship to more compact patios and intimate seating arrangements.
30" — Versatile & Balanced
The 30" model provides additional fire-bowl capacity without requiring the footprint of the larger models. Its 9" bowl depth and 72-pound construction make it a versatile residential choice.
36" — Substantial Centerpiece
With an 11" bowl depth and approximately 105-pound weight, the 36" Liberty has enough scale to become a prominent focal point within a larger conversation area.
42" — Large-Scale Outdoor Entertaining
At this size, steel thickness increases to 1/4". The 42" Liberty stands 20" high, provides a 12" bowl depth, and weighs approximately 186 pounds.
48" — Maximum Liberty Presence
The flagship size creates an unmistakable outdoor centerpiece. At 48" in diameter, 22" high, 14" deep, and approximately 245 pounds, this 1/4"-steel fire pit is designed for expansive patios and large-scale outdoor environments.

Natural Steel That Evolves With Your Space
The Liberty isn't designed to look exactly the same five years from now as it does when it arrives.
That's intentional.
Its Natural Steel Finish gradually develops an iron oxide patina as it encounters the outdoor environment.
The surface darkens and evolves, giving the steel the authentic character of naturally aged metal.
Rather than fighting that transformation with constant refinishing, The Liberty makes it part of the aesthetic.
Over time, each fire pit develops an appearance that's distinctly its own.
Simplicity Is Part of the Engineering
One of The Liberty's most important features is also one of the easiest to overlook:
There are no moving parts to break or wear out.
That straightforward approach eliminates many of the components that can become maintenance points on more complicated fire pits.
Substantial steel.
An open fire bowl.
Integrated drainage.
No unnecessary mechanisms.
It's an intentionally simple approach to outdoor fire.
Integrated Rain Drain
A fire pit designed to remain outdoors has to deal with rain.
The Liberty incorporates a substantial Rain Drain, allowing water to escape rather than simply collecting inside the bowl.
Ohio Flame also includes a 4" Round Blocking Plate with Standard Length Centering Tee, allowing you to close the drain when desired and help prevent ash from falling through the opening.
100% American Made
American manufacturing isn't simply a marketing line with The Liberty—it's central to the product.
Ohio Flame uses American carbon steel sourced from local mills, and each fire pit is artisan crafted in the USA.
For customers deliberately seeking outdoor products made domestically from American materials, The Liberty offers a particularly compelling combination of local craftsmanship, substantial steel, and timeless design.
Who This Is For
The Liberty is designed for homeowners who want their fire pit to feel like a lasting part of their outdoor environment rather than another temporary patio accessory.
It's particularly well suited for:
- Premium patios
- Backyard gathering spaces
- Outdoor living rooms
- Large conversation areas
- Outdoor kitchens and entertaining spaces
- Vacation and second homes
- Contemporary landscapes
- Rustic-modern environments
- Industrial-inspired outdoor spaces
- Buyers prioritizing American-made products
- Customers who appreciate artisan metalwork
- Large residential landscape projects
For buyers seeking American craftsmanship, substantial construction, natural materials, and uncomplicated ownership, The Liberty is an outdoor fire feature built around enduring simplicity.
Care & Maintenance
The Liberty's Natural Steel Finish is designed to weather and develop patina, so changes in surface color are part of its intended appearance.
Periodically remove excess ash and debris and keep the Rain Drain clear whenever drainage is desired.
Because this is a substantial steel fire feature, place it on an appropriate stable, non-combustible surface and follow Ohio Flame's installation, operation, and clearance recommendations.
Allow the steel and ashes to cool completely before cleaning or handling the blocking plate.
Important Safety Information
The Liberty is an outdoor wood-burning fire pit.
For safe operation:
- Use only outdoors in an appropriately open location.
- Position on a stable, non-combustible surface.
- Maintain appropriate clearances from structures, furniture, vegetation, and combustible materials.
- Follow all applicable local fire and outdoor-burning requirements.
- Never leave an active fire unattended.
- Keep children and pets appropriately supervised.
- Do not touch the steel while the fire pit is operating or cooling.
- Allow the fire pit and ashes to cool completely before cleaning or handling.
