Miniature Round Barbecue Grill

A round barbecue grill in a black iron-look finish, made to the 1:12 dollhouse scale used across the Garden & Outdoor range. Outdoor scenes need one piece that says what the space is for, and a round grill bowl does that job in a garden, on a patio, at a campsite or on a picnic: put it down and the patch of ground around it stops being empty and becomes somewhere a meal is happening. A round bowl also means it can sit out in an open area, rather than having to be pushed against a wall the way most furniture does.

You pay $16.99 for the grill, and the compare-at price is $21.99. A price badge offers 2 for $28.99. One finish is listed, Black, with no other options to choose between. One photograph comes with this piece and it is labelled as the Black option image rather than as a main product photo, so the single image is the option you are buying.

A grill of this kind is easiest to place as part of a small group. A patch of ground cover with the grill at the centre, seating set back from it and a table nearby reads as a garden that gets used rather than a lawn with furniture on it. In a camping scene the same piece works beside the other outdoor pieces, and on a balcony or terrace it can stand alone as the one thing the space is there for. Because it is a single low piece, it also fills ground that higher furniture leaves bare, so a scene does not end up with everything pushed back against the walls.

Within Garden & Outdoor the grill sits with the ground cover, the seating and the garden pieces that make an outdoor scene read as a place rather than a room with the roof taken off. Mini Furniture fills the rooms behind the garden, and Mini Plants covers anything growing around it.

Lift the grill by the bowl rather than by a leg or a thin edge of the frame, set it down on a flat surface, and dust it with a soft dry brush rather than a damp cloth. Keep it out of long spells of direct sun and away from damp, so the black finish stays even across the bowl.
