Buschbeck Outdoor Fireplaces are constructed using quartzite concrete – a natural product. Given the nature of concrete, you could expect to find some imperfections in your masonry outdoor fireplace.Buschbeck models have either a copper or stainless-steel insert.
Important: The copper is made from industrial copper which can have imperfections such as tarnishing around the edges and light scratches/blemishes.
