Why it works when nothing else does

They already have everything. They don’t have this.

“I don’t need anything” usually means “I don’t need more stuff.” The Faro isn’t stuff. It’s the reason to step outside after dinner — and it changes how their patio feels the very first night.

  • 1

    It gets used, not stored

    A flame you light on an ordinary Tuesday. Not a gadget that ends up in a drawer by spring.

  • 2

    Zero work for them

    No gas line, no installer, no permit. Casters and glass go on in about 10 minutes; a standard 20 lb grill tank hides inside the base.

  • 3

    It looks like a considered gift

    Matte black steel and a glass tower, designed and made in Poland by Planika. It reads as design, not equipment.

A gift that outlasts the party

The cake is gone by morning. The fire isn’t.

Most birthday gifts have one great moment. This one has the birthday night — and then every evening after it.

The birthday night

The table everyone stays at

Light it at the end of the table and nobody reaches for a jacket. Dinner turns into dessert, and dessert into another hour outside.

A random weeknight

Coffee outside, after dark

One turn of the knob and the patio becomes the place to end the day — a real flame, warm on your face from a few feet away.

Every season after

Spring, fall, and the cool nights between

It stretches patio season at both ends. And because it rolls, it follows them from the pool to the dining table to the front porch.

What you’re actually giving

A European outdoor fireplace that fits on any patio

14.2″ square and 58.9″ tall — about chest height. Small enough for a balcony corner, striking enough to anchor a whole backyard.

A real 360° flame

A living gas flame over lava stones, visible from every seat through four tempered-glass wind shields.

Warmth on a dial

Up to 27,300 BTU, adjustable down to 17,100. You feel it roughly 2–4 ft away — made for the people sitting around it.

The tank disappears

A standard 20 lb grill tank hides inside the base. About 18 hours at full flame, up to about 45 hours on low.

No installation

No gas line, no flue, no contractor. Piezo ignition — no batteries, no electronics to fail.

Rolls where the party is

Four locking casters and 44 lb — one person can move it from the pool to the table.

Built for outdoors

Powder-coated galvanized steel and tempered glass. Designed and made in Poland, EU.

Ready to give

Everything is in the box

  • The Faro fireplace (tank compartment inside)
  • Tempered-glass wind shields
  • Four locking casters
  • US-spec propane regulator & hose
  • Protective cover

Gift tip: the propane tank isn’t included. Pick up a standard 20 lb grill tank (any hardware store or gas station) and they can light it the same night.

Put the price in perspective

One gift. Hundreds of evenings.

Lit just two evenings a week, the Faro works out to about $4.50 an evening in its first year — and it keeps going.

Dinner out is over in two hours. A sweater is in the closet by March. This is the gift they see from the kitchen window every night — and think of you.

“Great outdoor fireplace. It provides warmth and looks very classy.”

Verified Faro owner · Ceneo

“Great product. It gives off strong heat, and the build quality is excellent.”

B. · Verified Faro purchase · Ceneo

“Very good build quality. On our covered patio with open sides, the heat feels limited, but the flame is beautiful. Overall, we’re happy with it.”

Before you give it

Gift-giver questions, answered

Will it arrive in time for the birthday?

The Faro is in stock in New Jersey and ships within 1–2 business days, with tracking emailed at dispatch. Most orders arrive within 3–7 business days after that. Cutting it close? Email mike@chichomedeco.com before you order and we’ll tell you honestly what to expect for your ZIP code.

Do they need to install anything?

No. It’s freestanding: attach the four casters and the glass wind shields (about 10 minutes), connect a 20 lb propane tank with the included regulator and hose, and light it with the built-in piezo igniter. No gas line, no flue, no contractor.

Which propane tank do I need to buy?

A standard 20 lb (5-gallon) tank — the same one used for a gas grill — available at any hardware store or gas station. It stores out of sight inside the base. The tank isn’t included, so grab one with the gift.

Is it warm enough to sit around?

It puts out up to 27,300 BTU and you feel the warmth roughly 2–4 ft from the unit. It’s designed ambience-first: perfect beside a lounge corner, at the end of a dining table or at the entrance, where people sit close by. It isn’t meant to heat a wide open lawn.

Can they use it on a covered patio or porch?

Yes, if it’s partially covered with good airflow — for example a pergola or a porch open on several sides. Never indoors, in a garage or in any fully enclosed space.

What if it’s not right? Returns and warranty

Unused items in the original packaging can be returned within the window in our refund policy, which lists the exact terms. Every Faro also carries a 2-year limited warranty from delivery, handled directly by our US team — nobody has to contact the factory in Poland.

This year’s birthday

Give them a reason to stay outside a little longer.

The one who doesn’t want anything will be lighting it again tomorrow night.
