If you have a gas fire pit, you might be missing out on the fuzzy, warm feeling that comes from sitting around a wood fire pit. Sure, a gas heater can keep you about as physically warm as a wood fire pit, but sometimes you just want to feel like you’re sitting around a wood campfire — even from the comfort of your own backyard.

In addition to the heavy-duty metal logs, you can also add handmade metal pinecones, which offer added aesthetics to match that of a classic campfire.

The shop also notes that the logs and pinecones are made from a bare steel and look as such, though they will slowly rust over time to give more of the appearance of natural wood.

In addition, the shop says the thick steel of the logs ensures they will “last a lifetime,” and that each metal firewood log is crafted by hand so that each unit is unique, while bearing similar characteristics to the others made. The shop also notes that buyers can contact them to set up a custom sized metal fire pit log or a specific appearance.

These fake propane fire pit logs ship for free from the shop in Aurora, Colorado, and the shop estimates that orders take between 9 and 16 days to arrive for domestic buyers. While the shop doesn’t accept returns on the metal logs, most buyers have high praise for the handcrafted fire pit sculptures.
