The Fire Column
Cricket Forge has partnered with artist Justin Campbell to create a more robust, refined version of his wildly popular Fire Column design.
Justin’s striking illustrations, originally hand-cut into the shells of old water heaters, set an iconic scene for anyone wanting to stay warm in style.
Exclusively from Cricket Forge, the Fire Column is a sculptural centerpiece built to endure both the elements and the years. Inspired by original pieces by artist Justin Campbell, they are available in his two original designs - Lionfish and Seahorse.
Each column is cut from 1/8" steel sheet and anchored by a 3/8" plate base, tray, and legs. The base features a sand-dollar cutout for airflow, rain drainage, and subtle illumination from below. Eight solid steel rivets secure the back seam—adding both strength and soul.
This is functional firecraft—bold, elemental, and unmistakably forged by hand.
