Bordeaux rectangle fire bowl: a 50 by 30 inch hull-sided trough with a linear burner
The American Fyre Designs Bordeaux rectangle fire bowl brings the curved, hull-like Bordeaux shape to a long, low trough, 50 inches wide, 30 inches deep, and 16 inches tall, on a small recessed base. It’s cast in glass fiber reinforced concrete, which looks like stone at a fraction of the weight, and comes in seven colors. A 24 inch stainless steel linear burner creates a ribbon of flame down the middle.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Turn the knob and press the igniter to light it, or add the Fyrestarter Bluetooth control and start it from your phone. The burner, pan, fittings, and lava granules are included, and you pick the fill on the page: lava, fire glass, or glass gems. A side table that hides a propane tank is optional. Want a square instead? See the 30-inch Bordeaux square fire bowl. The Bordeaux rectangle fire bowl ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
How much room does the Bordeaux Rectangle need?
Its footprint is 50 inches by 30 inches, standing 16.25 inches tall, so think of the space a substantial coffee table occupies and add walking clearance. The elongated shape is efficient in practice: it delivers big-bowl presence along one axis while staying slim enough front-to-back to sit before a sofa without cutting off the room.
Why pick a rectangular fire bowl over a square one?
Match the fire to the furniture. Square bowls center a space evenly, but seating rarely arranges itself evenly – sectionals and sofa groupings create long fronts, and the Bordeaux Rectangle’s 50-by-30 proportions run parallel to them naturally. Among rectangular fire pits, it is the shape that mirrors how lounge furniture actually sits.
What burner stretches across the Bordeaux Rectangle?
A 24-inch stainless steel linear burner – unusual among these fire bowls, where star burners are the rule. Rather than a rounded flame at the center, it draws a continuous line of fire along the bowl’s long axis, producing consistent flames across the surface that suit the stretched geometry perfectly.
What materials is this fire bowl built from?
Glass fiber reinforced concrete together with refractory cement, handcrafted in the USA. The refractory cement is worth noting – it is the class of material formulated for sustained heat – while the GFRC shell provides the clean lines and weather resistance the Bordeaux series is known for. The bowl arrives fully finished, ready for placement.
Which fuel and control combinations are available?
Natural gas or propane on the fuel side, and manual flame sensing control or the Bluetooth-enabled FyreStarter electronic ignition on the control side – four combinations in all, every one certified to ANSI standards. Order the pairing that fits your site and habits; the bowl itself is the same handsome rectangle throughout.
Can a rectangular bowl sit off-center or near a wall?
Better than round shapes can. A circle wants to be orbited, but a rectangle has a front and a back, so the Bordeaux works pushed toward a wall, aligned along a patio edge, or set off-center in a long space with seating on the open sides. Keep the clearances your manual specifies and the placement options stay wide.
How does seating arrange around a rectangle fire bowl?
In facing rows rather than a ring. The 50-inch sides naturally host the main seating – a sofa opposite a pair of chairs, or two sofas face to face – while the 30-inch ends stay open or take a single seat each. Everyone sits close to some stretch of that long flame, which a center-point fire cannot offer.
Fire Pits & Bowls Guide
Fire Pits & Fire Bowls, Handcrafted in GFRC
American Fyre Designs’ fire pits and fire bowls bring a simple, contemporary look to any backyard, patio or poolside. Every piece is handcrafted from innovative glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) — the look of solid stone at a fraction of the weight — with a stainless steel burner inside, and every model runs on natural gas or propane.
The Fire Pits: Louvre Series & Contractor’s Model
The Louvre Series brings a sleek, contemporary look to the classic outdoor fire pit — fill it with fire glass, creekstones, lava coals or campfire logs to set the mood. Prefer to design your own? The Contractor’s Model comes as a blank slate, ready for your choice of stone, tile or other veneer.

Fire Bowls: The Hottest Trend in Outdoor Living
Simple, contemporary and endlessly versatile, American Fyre Designs Fire Bowls are easily incorporated into any style or size of outdoor space — ring a patio, line a pool or anchor a courtyard. With the Round, Chat, Marseille and Bordeaux series in a range of sizes, there is a bowl for every corner of the yard.

Marseille: Low Profile, Fire & Water
The Marseille Fire Bowls pair a low-profile silhouette with an extra-wide opening that accommodates more — and more varied — fire media. Three sizes are also available with a water spout, combining running water with dancing flames for a dramatic poolside feature (plumbing must be locally supplied).
Two Ways to Control the Flame
Manual Flame Sensing Control System
Standard on every model. A manual battery-powered spark igniter with a thermocouple-equipped control and manual flame height adjustment. If the thermocouple stops sensing a flame, the gas shuts off automatically — regardless of valve position.
FyreStarter Bluetooth Control
This convenient ON/OFF – High/Low electronic system lets you run the fire from your smartphone — just download the app — or manually at the appliance. Two USB ports (A & C) charge phones, outdoor speakers and more. Optional 110V upgrade, available on all fire pits and most fire bowls — see each product page.

What Our Customers Say
D
A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.
KF
I'm really happy with my sauna purchase. Maya gave above and beyond excellent customer service. She wasn't pushy and gave impressive followup after the delivery to make sure everything was just right.
DE
I enjoy my FD2 Sauna with Red Light, Infrared and radiant heat. Use it 5x a week and my post workout soreness is minimal and sleep great. Maya at Norse Steam was excellent to work with.
B
We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent
MP
Awesome Sauna and Awesome Company and Experience purchasing it from Maya!
After much research I chose the Finnmark FD-2 and it has met and exceeded all my expectations! Easy to assemble and it functions great - just as advertised. I highly recommend it for home use!
EA
Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10
G
Maya is amazing - super helpful and responsive. Looked at many stores, these guys have the best prices and service. Highly recommend
GR
Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.
RS
Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be

Smoking Hot Tub!
I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.

Great Sauna & Purchase Experience
Great experience purchasing Finnmark FD-2 from Norse Steam. Good communication and easy to assemble. Temperature increases quickly (30 minutes or less to 140) and maintains well. So far this has been a great purchase.
M
Great sauna and great customer service
We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

Sauna Review
I recently purchased a sauna from Norse Steam, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was exceptional, and Maya deserves special recognition for her outstanding support!
Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering all my questions about the sauna features, installation process, and maintenance. She went above and beyond to ensure I selected the perfect model for my home. Even after the purchase, Maya followed up to make sure everything was running smoothly and that I was satisfied with my sauna.
The sauna itself is top-notch beautifully designed, durable, and easy to use. It's clear that Norse Steam takes pride in the quality of their products and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
If you're considering a sauna, I wholeheartedly recommend Norse Steam. With their excellent customer service and high-quality products, you're in great hands. Thank you, Maya, and the entire Norse Steam team for a fantastic experience!
