The Arteflame Classic 40″ with Storage Base is where serious outdoor cooking meets sculptural design. A ½" solid carbon-steel flat-top delivers 1,250+ sq in of cooking surface with a natural heat gradient — blazing 1,000°F+ at the center grate for steakhouse-quality sears, tapering to a gentle warm zone at the outer edge for finishing, resting, and keeping sides hot. When dinner is done, lift the cooktop and let the CORTEN fire bowl take center stage. This is the grill that becomes the gathering.

- Classic 40″ CORTEN steel fire bowl
- CORTEN steel storage base (2-shelf integrated storage)
- ½" solid carbon-steel flat-top cooktop
