Terracotta can be more fragile but it is a beautiful and durable material that gives the chiminea an authentic Mexican-inspired appearance.

It is essential to dry your new clay chiminea prior to using it for the very first time. This will stop it from cracking due to the sudden shift in the temperature of the fire.

After a few minutes of small flames, your clay should be ready to use.

Clay chimineas are often sealed to help prevent moisture from damaging them over time. This is ideal for any outdoor fire pit. However, it is crucial for chimineas made from clay, since the large clay chiminea absorbs moisture and may crack if exposed to it excessively.
