At The Workshop 1924, we’ve spent decades crafting custom metalwork for clients across New Zealand. Now, we’re proud to introduce our own product range, starting with our striking Cubist Chiminea, a modern take on the classic chiminea fire pit.
Designed, built, and finished in-house, this is more than just an outdoor heater, it’s a statement piece.
A modern chiminea, built to last
Our corten steel chiminea is designed to thrive in New Zealand’s outdoor conditions. Unlike traditional clay chimineas, this steel chiminea develops a rich, protective rust patina over time, giving it a rugged aesthetic without compromising durability.
Whether you’re entertaining friends or relaxing outdoors, this chiminea fire pit delivers consistent radiant heat while adding architectural appeal to your space.
Precision made with water jet technology
Every chiminea is crafted using our in-house water jet cutting machine at The Cutting Lab, a division of The Workshop 1924. Water jet cutting allows us to:
- Achieve exceptional precision and clean edges
- Maintain the integrity of the corten steel
- Create bold, geometric designs
- Ensure every chiminea meets our exact standards
This advanced process sets our chimineas apart from mass-produced alternatives.
Designed for New Zealand outdoor living
Our Cubist Chiminea is:
- Made from premium corten steel
- Built for long-term outdoor exposure
- Designed to age beautifully over time
- Easy to use and maintain
When first delivered, the steel has a raw finish. Within weeks of outdoor exposure, it will develop its signature rusted patina. This is intentional and protects the steel for years to come.
Why choose a chiminea fire pit?
A chiminea fire pit offers several advantages over open fire pits:
- Better heat direction – The chimney directs warmth forward
- Reduced smoke blowback – Ideal for windy conditions
- Efficient burning – Uses less wood for sustained heat
- Compact footprint – Perfect for patios and smaller outdoor areas
If you’ve been searching for a chiminea fire pit, you’re not alone. This increasingly popular outdoor feature is a must-have for modern backyard living.
A functional piece of art
We believe outdoor heating should be as visually impactful as it is practical. The Cubist Chiminea combines bold geometric design with traditional fire functionality, making it a centrepiece for your outdoor area.
