Those who appreciate the convivial spirit of the barbecue will be seduced by its equally warm fireplace. Ideal for warming up the atmosphere, the brazier is perfect for making long summer evenings last and enjoying your terrace or garden without limit.
It’s a summer staple. The barbecue, synonymous with long evenings with family or friends, is always the promise of a festive and friendly atmosphere. Beyond grilling, those who like to gather around the fire will also appreciate being able to extend this warm atmosphere late into the night. Little cousin of the barbecue, the brazier is the ideal companion for summer evenings. This mini fireplace allows you to light a nice campfire in your garden or on your terrace, perfect for warm evenings sometimes a little cooler. Its format allows it to be installed almost anywhere, and to store it just as easily. Its increasingly sophisticated design also makes it a exterior decoration element in its own right. Enough to give character to your garden. Square, rectangular, round, on foot or suspended … Braziers adopt all kinds of shapes and a more or less elaborate design. Choose a model that matches your needs and your use, a circular shape if you want to gather around the fire for example, or more decorative if you want to install it in a corner of your terrace. Material side,steel has the advantage of being robust and resistant to bad weather, but also to UV. However, remember to make sure it is treated or it will rust, or opt for Corten steel, which has a unique aesthetic. The melting, also very resistant, diffuses heat well and adapts to extreme temperatures. As for terracotta or ceramic, we appreciate their authenticity. To make summer rhyme with long evenings and conviviality, here are a few outdoor spaces with a fiery atmosphere to find inspiration and install a brazier at home.
