The Original Mexican Chimenea is made to a very high
Specification by hand in a traditional way in Mexico. Because the Original Mexican Chimeneas are made by hand they are all unique & this add to the overall finish & feel of the product.
The Chimenea itself is finished with a smooth feel which creates a soft clay to touch. Each of the Chimeneas within the Original Mexican range come with a lid which should be placed on top of the Chiminea when it is not in use to stop any rain water entering. As soon as the Chimenea is in use you should remove the lid so the smoke can escape through the flume.
The Original Mexican Chimenea comes with a Steel frame 3 legged stand which helps raise the Chimenea of the ground.
This Original Mexican Chiminea also fits securely into the Chimenea Cradle shown in the related products to the right of the page. When you place the Chimenea in the Cradle is creates a great area for cooking & allows you extra use from your Chimenea. We do not recommend you place an already hot Chimenea into the Cradle as the Clay will be hot. If you intend using the Chimenea & Cradle together we suggest you set up the area before lighting the fuel & heating the Chimenea.
All Chimeneas should be covered when not in use to help protect the Clay & stop any deterioration which may be caused by adverse weather. As some deterioration is inevitable we also suggest the clear Chimseal solution is applied regularly to maintain the original look of the clay colour.
