The Original Silhouette — Full-Size Live-Fire Cooking

The Arteflame Classic 40″ With High Round Base


This is the Arteflame most people picture: a sculpted CORTEN pedestal rising into a 40″ solid steel cooktop with a live fire at its center. Over 1,250 square inches of cooking surface means steaks searing over the flame while vegetables, seafood, and sides finish across the outer rings — a full spread, timed to land together.

The High Round Base build is also the most accessible way into the full-size 40″ cooktop. Same fire bowl, same steel, same cooking system as the flagship configurations — carried on the clean, timeless pedestal that started it all. And when dinner wraps, the bowl lifts off the base to burn as a stand-alone fire pit.

Why Cooks Choose the Round Base

Everything the Fire Can Do


1,250+ Square Inches, Zero Juggling

The cooktop heats from the center outward, creating natural sear, griddle, and warming zones on one continuous surface. Where you place the food is how it cooks — intuitive by your first session.

1,000°F Searing at the Center

The center grate sits directly over the flame and reaches steakhouse searing temperatures — the hard, caramelized crust most backyard grills can’t touch.

The Sculptural Pedestal

The high round base is drawn in clean, continuous lines from US CORTEN weathering steel. It reads as outdoor sculpture as much as cooking equipment — and the patina only deepens the effect over time.

Fire Bowl Lifts Off for Fire Pit Nights

The bowl removes from the pedestal to work as a stand-alone fire pit. Cook through the afternoon, then let the same fire carry the evening.

Is the High Round Base the Right Build?

  • Are working with a smaller patio — the 30″ One Series runs the same cooking system in a tighter footprint
Before You Buy

Common Questions


Is the weathered finish supposed to look like that?

Yes — that’s CORTEN steel working as designed. It forms a stable, earthy patina that serves as its own protective layer, the same material trusted in outdoor architecture and sculpture. No painting, no refinishing; it’s meant to live outside and evolve.

Do I cook with wood or charcoal?

Your call — the fire bowl runs on either or both. Hardwood brings the deepest smoke character and the best fire-pit glow; charcoal gives steadier heat for longer sessions. Plenty of owners blend the two.

What’s the upkeep on the cooktop?

Think giant cast-iron skillet: scrape while warm, wipe with a light coat of cooking oil, and refresh with the seasoning puck as needed. The surface builds a natural non-stick patina that improves the more you cook.

How does delivery work for a grill this size?

At roughly 400 lbs, the Classic 40″ ships via freight carrier — and shipping is free, like every order with us. The carrier coordinates a delivery window with you; plan on a helper for final placement.

What does the warranty cover?

Arteflame backs this grill with a 3-year limited warranty. As an authorized dealer, we can help coordinate any warranty questions directly with Arteflame — call 833-777-2962 or email info@smokeforges.com.
