Fire Pit Art Emperor Fire Pit
Description
The Emperor Fire Pit by Fire Pit Art is a stunning, hand-crafted masterpiece that draws on ancient design to create a truly regal outdoor centerpiece. Forged by skilled Tennessee craftsmen in the heartland of America, every detail - from the hand-crafted rivet heads to the solid steel banding and lifting rings - pays homage to the grandeur of kingdoms past. Built from heavy-duty 1/4-inch thick mild carbon steel, the Emperor is one of the most durable steel fire pits made anywhere in the world.
The low-profile design allows you to enjoy the full spectacle of the fire, from a roaring blaze to the last glowing embers, even from the comfort of an Adirondack chair. The iron oxide patina finish is maintenance-free and completely weather-resistant, maturing and deepening in color over time for a look that is uniquely your own. Available in wood burning and gas fuel configurations, the Emperor is made to order and individually numbered by the artist on an attached brass plaque.

FAQ
Can the Emperor Fire Pit be left outside year-round?
Yes! The iron oxide patina finish is completely maintenance-free and designed to withstand all weather conditions. The patina will naturally mature and darken with use and exposure, eventually becoming permanent. Just avoid covering it with a tarp, as this can interfere with the oxidation process and cause the patina to blacken unevenly. During the early maturing process, keep wet leaves and debris off the steel to allow proper oxidation.
What is the difference between the Match Lit and AWEIS gas options?
The Match Lit system requires you to manually ignite the burner with a long match or lighter - it is simple, reliable, and uses the same high-quality HPC Penta burner. The AWEIS (All Weather Electronic Ignition System) by Fire by Design allows push-button ignition with no matches required. The AWEIS also features flame-sensing technology and a windproof design, making it the safer and more convenient choice for frequent use or for those who prefer hands-free ignition.
How long does it take to receive my Emperor Fire Pit?
The Emperor is made to order by craftsmen in Tennessee, so production and shipping times can vary. Please email us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for a current estimated lead time and delivery ETA before placing your order.
Do I need a professional to install the gas version?
For natural gas variants, a licensed gas technician should connect the fire pit to your gas line. Liquid propane variants are more flexible and can typically be set up by connecting a propane tank using the included flex line. The AWEIS electronic ignition system includes installation instructions, but professional installation is recommended for all gas connections to ensure safety and compliance with local codes.
Can I customize the finish color?
Yes! The Emperor is available in the standard Iron Oxide Patina finish at no additional cost, or you can choose a custom powder coat color for an additional $800. Custom powder coat options offer a wide range of colors for those who want a specific look to match their outdoor decor.
Is the Emperor Fire Pit really hand-crafted?
Absolutely. Every Emperor Fire Pit is made to order by skilled craftsmen in Tennessee. The hand-crafted rivet heads, solid steel banding, and lifting rings are all applied by hand, and each piece is individually numbered by the artist on an attached brass plaque. No two are exactly alike.
