Astro Fire Sculpture in Stainless Steel: a low half-sphere of steel staves around the flame
The Outdoor Plus Astro fire sculpture in stainless steel is a low, wide fire feature in a 30, 36, or 48 inch size shaped like a half sphere, built from curved vertical staves with narrow gaps between them, so the fire glows out through the sides. It rests directly on the ground with no legs, and stainless keeps its brushed finish without rusting.
Burn firewood in it as it comes, or order it as a gas feature for natural gas or propane and light it with a match or a push-button igniter. Decorative gas burner ornaments are optional. Prefer a rustic finish? The Astro in Corten steel weathers to a warm rust brown. The stainless Astro fire sculpture ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What makes the Stainless Steel Astro different from the Corten version?
Finish and mood. The stainless Astro keeps its bright, brushed-metal gleam permanently — no rusting, no patina — and at night the polished surface mirrors the flames dancing behind its cutouts, so the sculpture appears lit from every angle. Corten goes rustic; this one stays sharply modern.
Which sizes are offered for the stainless Astro?
The same three as its Corten sibling: 30-inch (TFL-AST30SSWB), 36-inch (TFL-AST36SSWB), and 48-inch (TFL-AST48SSWB). If it will sit near a pool or contemporary hardscape, the larger stainless Astro sizes make a striking mirror-finish focal point.
Is this a wood-burning fire feature?
Yes. The stainless Astro is built for real firewood — actual logs, embers, and that firelight flicker through the shell. If you love the ritual of a genuine wood burning fire pit but want it to look like sculpture, this is exactly that.
How do I put the fire out safely at the end of the night?
Stop adding wood an hour before you head in, spread the coals inside the Astro so they burn down, then douse with water or smother with sand. Stir and douse again until nothing hisses. Never leave embers glowing unattended overnight.
Does a wood fire throw sparks I should plan for?
Occasionally, yes — popping logs send embers, which is part of why the Astro belongs on a non-combustible surface in an open area. Burning dry, seasoned hardwood keeps popping to a minimum; softwoods and damp logs are the main spark offenders.
Am I allowed to have a wood fire feature in my backyard?
Most areas allow recreational wood fires, but rules differ on setbacks, burn bans, and permitted days. Check your city or county fire authority before the Astro arrives — and note some municipalities treat a contained steel sculpture more favorably than an open ground pit.
Can I get the stainless Astro set up for gas instead?
You can — the spec tab lists Match Lit through Plug and Play (CSA certified) ignition options with liquid propane or natural gas, chosen when you order. Tell us the fuel and ignition you want and we will confirm the right Astro configuration.
