Some of his designs draw inspiration from nature, while others cross a more modern realm, and the sizes range from small to large. So go the price points: smaller tabletop models like the Pot-de-Feu (perfect for grilling shishkabobs or making s'mores) are hand-cut from scrapped propane tanks and start at $100. Need something bigger? Turn to the 41-inch Fiery Fleur-de-Lis Modern Firebowl. Of course, the artist offers many sizes in between, at a price that fits. Most are adaptable for propane or natural gas.

These are really cool. However, one should check with their municipality before buying. My city, for example, required that all fire pits have a grill, so these unfortunately wouldn't pass code.
