Frequently Asked Questions

Our cement table tops are "duplicated" from hand-picked vintage barn wood.  Materials used to achieve an authentic wood plank appearance are proprietary in nature, but we can assure you they are cement!

Steve resides in the beautiful mountains of Boise Idaho.  You can find Steve at his "store front" at the Capital City Public Market, Saturdays April thru November. 

Made of cement, backer board and steel tubing with a protective coating (same materials used for BBQ islands).  Color is throughout with only 3% fade. Outdoor covers are available for winter months.

Cement surfaces are moisture resistant.  Moisten a clean cloth with water (avoid chemicals) to clean table top surface and metal trim as needed.  Use a large bristle brush or a vacuum to clean between grooves.  Some models are made with our smoother planks.

Table tops are made of cement, but do have a protective sealant applied.  For this reason, warm items may be placed on table tops, however, we recommend avoiding very hot items to come in direct contact with the table top surfaces.

Our heaviest standard items are the dining table (190 lbs.) and the rectangular fire table (220 lbs.)  These tables are not heavier than tables made of real wood slabs.  Furniture pads for indoor items, and casters for wine barrel fire tables help our tables to slide / roll with ease.

Our cement planks do not need to be resealed, and other than cleaning as needed, require very little maintenance.  However, wine barrels may need to be resealed every couple of years with a quick coating of linseed oil.

We are available at the Capital City Public Market Saturdays April thru October, if you'd like to pick up your item there between 9:00-1:00. Otherwise, deliveries are made after Market on Saturdays: free within Ada County (and along Hwy 21 up to Idaho City).  Inquire for outside this area.

We ship coast-to-coast.  It is typically $230 to ship a fire table to a carrier terminal for customer pick up, and $330 to ship to your residence with a lift gate.  Please call for a quote to ship to your area.  NO TAX on items sent out-of-state.  Photo shown: Latrobe, PA

We do sell fire table accessories with or without the purchase of our fire table.  Check out our online store, or send us an inquiry.  We sell a variety of fire glass & stone, flame guards, outdoor covers and burner covers. 

Feel free to contact us with your fire table questions.  We have also found Celestial Fire Glass to be a great source, as well, with knowledgeable and friendly staff:    https://support.celestialfireglass.com/ click the back arrow to return to Rustic Elegance.

Countertops are an entirely different process that we are not set up for.  However, our new smoothe cement finish option for FIRE TABLES should be available Fall of 2021 (or Spring 2022).  This option has a very modern feel, with slight variations in the cement to maintain that artisan touch.  Steve has achieved a high quality finish we think our customers are going to love!
