Quick verdict
The Gardeco Sol is a 110cm Large Mexican clay chimenea in rustic orange, with a distinctive golden sun medallion on the funnel. It comes complete with a metal stand and clay lid, burns wood or charcoal, and needs no assembly. Clay can crack if it becomes waterlogged or freezes while wet, and Gardeco offers no guarantee against this, so covering it over winter matters.

Design and Materials:
- Genuine Mexican clay chimenea, hand-made and hand-painted, so shapes and colours vary slightly piece to piece.
- A golden sun medallion decorates the top of the funnel for maximum impact when the fire is lit. Painted a rustic orange, the same colour used as a base primer on some of Gardeco's other finishes.
- Comes complete with its metal stand and clay lid. No assembly required.
-
Heat and Use:
- Burns dry wood logs or charcoal. Clay chimeneas are efficient burners: the clay body heats up and radiates warmth, so you don't need a roaring fire.
- Do not burn coal. Unlike Gardeco's cast iron range, coal burns too hot for fired clay.
-
What to Know:
- The paint finish will discolour with firing and weathering over time. This does not affect use, and the chimenea can be repainted.
- Clay can crack if it gets waterlogged or freezes while wet, so cover it or bring it in over winter. Gardeco offers no guarantee against cracking or paint finish, which is standard across all handmade Mexican clay chimeneas.
- Two people make it easier to move and position, given the weight and the risk of chipping the clay.
Buying with confidence
- No guarantee against cracking or paint finish. This is standard across all handmade Mexican clay chimeneas, cracking and paint discolouration are natural risks of fired clay, not covered as defects.

Sol questions, answered
Does the Sol come with a stand and lid?
Yes, it includes a matching metal stand and clay lid as standard. No assembly is required, it arrives ready to position.
What fuel does the Sol burn?
Dry wood logs or charcoal. Don't use coal, it burns too hot for fired clay and can crack it, unlike Gardeco's cast iron chimeneas which handle coal fine.
Will the Sol crack?
Clay can crack if it becomes waterlogged or freezes while wet. Gardeco offers no guarantee against cracking, which is standard for all handmade Mexican clay chimeneas, so covering it or bringing it in for winter is worth doing. A chimenea cover or winter coat protects against this.
What makes the Sol different from other Gardeco Mexican chimeneas?
The golden sun medallion on the funnel, designed for maximum visual impact when the fire is burning behind it. It's currently only available in the 110cm Large size, in a rustic orange finish.
How is the Sol delivered, and will I need help?
Free UK mainland delivery, typically within 7 to 10 working days. It arrives assembled with its stand, no tools needed, but two people make it easier to move safely given the weight and the risk of chipping the clay.
Who the Sol is for
It is a good fit if:
- Buyers who want a bold, single-colour statement piece with a distinctive sun motif
- Gardens with a sheltered spot or a cover to protect the clay over winter
- Anyone furnishing a smaller patio; the Large size is 110cm
Consider something else if:
- Anyone wanting a guaranteed crack-proof chimenea; clay carries a natural cracking risk with no cover under warranty
- Anyone wanting to burn coal; only wood or charcoal are suitable for clay
- Buyers wanting the larger XL size; only Large is currently in stock
