Turn an ordinary hearth or outdoor fire feature into a striking focal point with this sculpted skull log.

It fits most standard installations and adds theatrical atmosphere for seasonal decorating, themed gatherings, or year-round gothic styling.

How does the skull look when the fire is lit?

When flames reach the skull, light streams through the eye sockets and mouth, creating depth and motion that mimic a burning head. The textured cement surface darkens and glows at the edges for a convincing charred appearance without breaking down.

• Flame openings in eyes and mouth for visible flicker
• Surface texture simulates scorched bone and ash
• Paint engineered to darken realistically under high heat
