Fire Tables
At the heart of the fire table is a high-quality bioethanol burner cassette, providing a real, dancing flame without the smoke, soot or ash associated with traditional wood fires. The burner is completely self-contained, requiring no gas bottles, electrical connections or permanent installation, giving you complete flexibility over where the table can be enjoyed. Bioethanol burns cleanly and efficiently, producing an attractive orange flame that creates warmth and atmosphere without leaving lingering odours on clothes or outdoor furnishings. When not in use, the bespoke oak lid fits neatly over the burner, transforming the piece from a striking fire feature into a practical and elegant coffee table.
Heritage Materials
Every Biofire Table starts with structurally sound, heavyweight European or American oak sourced through specialist distillery merchants. These barrels have lived long lives in Scottish highland warehouses, Kentucky rickhouses or coastal towns, developing fire‑toasted interiors, industrial steel hoops and natural markings that make each table unique. When transformed into a fire table, the grain, patina and character remain visible, allowing the history of the barrel to become part of the design.
Craftsmanship and Construction
Each fire table is engineered with a custom‑built fire basin designed for consistent heat and safe outdoor use. The oak is treated to enhance durability while preserving its natural character. The metalwork is hand‑finished in steel, copper or brass depending on the design, chosen for its strength and ability to weather beautifully outdoors. Every table is assembled, refined and finished by hand, ensuring that each piece is both functional and sculptural.
Why Choose a Biofire Table?
A barrel‑oak fire table offers something modern fire pits cannot replicate. The oak has already lived a long life, carrying warmth and history that blend effortlessly with outdoor materials. The height and scale of the table give it presence, while the fire basin adds atmosphere, comfort and a focal point for gatherings. It is a sculptural piece, a functional fire feature and a celebration of heritage craftsmanship all in one.
