A fire ring is designed to contain a fire that is built directly onto the ground, such as a campfire. Fire rings have no bottom, and are simply circles made of forged metal which surround and contain your fire. They're available in various sizes to suit your needs.

If you're hoping to build a fire somewhere that isn't fire-safe, such as on your patio or in your backyard, you may want to look into a fire pit instead. Fire pits have legs and bottoms, and are designed to contain the entire fire instead of just keeping it in one place.

A fire ring may be nothing more than a short, wide section of metal tube, partially buried in the ground. Slightly more advanced fire rings may be partially covered with metal bars so that the fire may be used for cooking. These types are seen at many campsites. Fire rings in urban areas, such as on beaches, may be made of poured concrete. Makeshift fire rings can be constructed out of a ring of stones where pre-constructed rings are not available (care should be taken as some stones can explode when heated due to trapped gas pockets or thermal expansion).
