Design & craftsmanship
The Kujira Zen model emphasizes a minimalist fire bowl silhouette suited to contemporary landscapes and classic courtyards alike. Handcrafted UHPC construction creates a dense, durable surface that replicates the look of refined concrete while resisting typical outdoor wear. The sculptural round form reads as a large concrete pit or round garden hearth, making it an appropriate focal point for both residential patios and luxury hospitality settings seeking a modern gas firepit aesthetic.
Performance & fuel options
Equipped with an HPC Match Light burner unit, the bowl supports both natural gas and liquid propane connections. The burner is recessed to maintain the clean bowl profile while providing reliable flame spread over included tumbled Mexican lava rock. Use it as a propane fire bowl for portable backyard heating or hard-pipe it into an existing natural gas line for a permanent patio fire feature. All fuel and connection work should comply with local codes and be completed by a qualified installer.
Installation & placement
At 265 pounds and a 39" diameter, the unit is a large concrete pit sized for substantial outdoor areas, decks rated for masonry loads, or level paving. The round shape simplifies placement and sightlines from multiple seating positions. Because each piece is handmade, color and surface texture will vary slightly; Kujira offers the bowl in its full range of concrete colors to match custom patio decor schemes.
Care & maintenance
Routine cleaning of the UHPC surface with a gentle, pH-neutral cleaner will preserve the Natural artisan matte finish. Remove loose ash and debris from the lava rock before inspecting the HPC burner unit. Follow the included warranty and care instructions for seasonal maintenance, and always shut off gas at the supply when the bowl is not in use.
