Esschert Design fire baskets

There are square and round fire baskets, fire buckets, and fire balls and globes with laser-cut patterns such as stripes, dots and speckles. Other models have a pattern of deer or of birds on a branch (Birds on Twig), or the shape of a globe, a half sphere or a half ellipse. You usually choose between black steel and rust-brown Corten steel. There are also wood pellet fire baskets from the Fancy Flames range, in black or silver, which you use as the manual describes.

Fire bowls

Among the fire bowls you will find steel bowls in various sizes, such as the 60 cm Classic and a black 80 cm bowl, cast iron fire bowls, fire bowls with a log store, a bowl on legs, a slanted bowl and a square bowl, and fire bowls with a concrete look (MGO). Some models double as a barbecue, such as the cast iron barbecue and fire bowl and the fire bowl with tripod and grill grate. A reversible model works as a fire bowl or as a fire basket.

Accessories

For cooking there are separate barbecue grates in sizes S, M, L and XL, a Japanese-style grate and a cast iron grate with griddle plate. You will also find base plates for round and square fire baskets, a tripod to place over the fire bowl and a folding spark guard. Check the title to see whether a grate fits the size of your bowl.

What to look for when choosing

First choose between a fire basket, which is taller and shows the fire all around, and a fire bowl, which is lower and more open. Then look at the material: black steel, Corten steel with a brown rust layer that is part of the look, or heavy cast iron. With laser-cut patterns, the light of the fire shines through the wall. If you want to cook over the fire, use the With grill grate filter or choose a separate grate in the right size.

Using it safely

Only use a fire basket or fire bowl outdoors in the open air, not under a canopy, parasol or pergola, and never indoors or in a tent. Keep a generous distance from your house, trees, hedges and fences, and follow the manual. Place it on paving, gravel or a base plate, not on wooden decking or unprotected grass. Never leave the fire unattended, keep water or sand close by and only throw away the ash once it has cooled completely. Local rules on fires apply, and in the Netherlands a stookalert from the RIVM may be in force.
