Northcote Pottery - Bastion Chimenea

Northcote Pottery - Bastion Chimenea

Make a striking architectural statement in your garden with the Northcote Pottery Bastion Chimenea. Showcasing a highly sophisticated, modern take on traditional heating designs, this premium chimenea is designed to serve as the ultimate contemporary focal piece for Australian home gardens and paved alfresco areas. Combining a sleek, rounded hood with a dramatic open-grate profile, the Bastion provides an uninterrupted, atmospheric view of the crackling wood fire while delivering magnificent radiant warmth to keep your guests cosy long after the sun goes down.

Crafted for superior structural integrity and long-term durability, the Bastion features an incredibly solid steel construction finished in a premium, high-temperature black powder coating. The innovative design incorporates an integrated lower pedestal stand that safely elevates the hot fire bowl well off the ground, helping to protect delicate lawns, timber decks, and outdoor paving from intense heat exposure. With its generous burning capacity and high-reaching chimney flue, this premium unit naturally draws smoke up and away from your seating areas, ensuring a clean, comfortable, and well-organised heating experience throughout the autumn and winter seasons.

Best For:

• Modern Architectural Gardens: An exceptional choice for homeowners wanting to introduce a bold, sculptural design element that enhances contemporary landscapes, courtyards, and minimalist patio zones.
• Surface-Conscious Entertaining: Designed with an elevated base structure that acts as a protective shield, raising the high-temperature fire bowl safely off sensitive paving and flooring materials.
• High-Capacity Social Heating: Perfectly suited for gathering larger groups around a warm, roaring log fire, delivering maximum radiant heat output with excellent smoke control.

Features & Benefits:

• Sleek, Modern Hooded Silhouette: Crafted with a premium rounded dome and integrated chimney that draws smoke vertically, keeping your entertaining area clear and comfortable.
• Elevated Protective Stand: Features a robust lower frame designed to suspend the hot burning basin off the ground, providing crucial heat defence for underlying surfaces.
• High-Temperature Black Powder Finish: Coated in a highly resilient, protective layer designed to withstand extreme operational temperatures and resist seasonal weathering.
• Large Burning Capacity: Engineered with a spacious, deep-dish fire bowl that holds substantial hardwood logs for a longer, warmer burn.
• Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: Built from thick, durable steel components to prevent warping, structural fatigue, and wear through years of frequent use.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).

How lead times work:

• Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
• Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
• Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
• Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
• Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.

Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
