Large Clay Chimineas For SaleClay chimineas should be protected from the elements. Clay chimineas can crack or become softer when exposed to the rain and cold.

Size
A chimenea is a great size for the majority of patios and gardens. The clay structure emits heat and creates a cozy atmosphere. They also serve as wood-burning stoves that efficiently consume various aromatic hardwoods that give beautiful natural aromas.
