It can withstand temperatures of up to 1,300 degrees, making it ideal for use in fire pits. It comes in every color of the rainbow, from amber to crystal red to sky blue. You can change the color and shape of glass in your fire pit depending on your mood or the color palette of your furnishings.A typical fire pit uses 30 pounds of glass media. At Rich’s, we have 120 types of glass media available for you to order, and we stock the top colors and shapes in our showrooms.For more fire pit ideas, see our article, "Fire Pits: A Hot Trend in Outdoor Living."Rich's ShowroomsStop by any of Rich's five Puget Sound stores in Lynnwood, Bellevue, Tacoma, Tukwila, and Silverdale, Washington and ask to see our full line of fire pits. ‘Like’ Rich’s on FacebookWe provide tips and Internet-only specials on our Facebook page.
