Big, bold, rustic and hard-working. That’s our traditional Colima Mexican chiminea – Red. It’s hand-made and hand-painted, and chimineas of this design have been used in Mexico for centuries. The design works beautifully, honed over generations of constant use. This one comes complete with a stand and matching lid, and has a gorgeous, rich plain red finish that goes perfectly with terracotta plant pots.

Clay is the traditional material for making chimineas. They tend to be heavier than some metal chimineas and need some special care, but if used correctly they should give years of warmth and enjoyment. You should always season a clay chiminea before use – find out how in our blog, which is packed with handy insight into alfresco life and much more.
