Grand Canyon

The Arizona Juniper log set is part of the Grand Canyon Gas Logs three native collections. The Arizona Juniper logs are cast from real logs found in nature and then hand painted to bring to life the natural beauty of the log. The logs in the Arizona Juniper collection were discovered in the back woods of Arizona’s pine enriched forest of Northern Arizona. While hiking through the forest our log hunters found fallen juniper trees with distinctive characteristics like no other junipers in the area. Realizing that they had found something special our log hunters gathered up as many logs as they could to begin building the log sets. Each log was handpicked for the collection that it resides in and resembles the log that it was cast from as it was laying on the forest floor.

The Arizona Weathered Oak Charred collection brings new style and beauty to the Native Series.  Like all other collections created by Grand Canyon Gas Logs craftsmen, these logs are cast from real pieces of wood and then hand painted to perfection.  However, this collection has an extra step added into the process.  After the front logs are found, our craftsmen notch the center of the log and then set the log on fire.  The fire burns through the log creating the most desired charred front.  Once the logs are cooled, our craftsmen create the mold capturing the charred ends.  This process would not be complete without our artist who brings life back into the cast logs, painting them to create a look as if they were burned in your own fireplace.  This process is repeated for all 5 sizes, making each front log unique to the set that it resides in.

Blue Pine Split logs were found in the bark beetle ravaged forest in Northern Arizona. The infestation of beetles left behind acres upon acres of down trees, however it created unbelievable wood character only captured in the Blue Pine Split collection. The deep grain pattern and gray highlights make this split look like the wood was split right in half in you fireplace. Don’t like the split, reverse the log to showcase the fantastic Alligator bark.

The Quaking Aspen is part of Grand Canyon Gas Logs three native collections. The Quaking Aspen logs are cast from real logs found in nature and then hand painted to bring to life the natural beauty. Like the Arizona Juniper collection the logs for the Quaking Aspen were discovered in the backwoods of the Northern Arizona Forest. The name Quaking Aspen comes from the appearance of the Aspen tree when the wind is blowing. The leaves of the tree are attached to the branches with a long petiole; this allows even the faintest of breezes to cause the leaves to flutter. The fluttering effect gives the appearance that the Aspen is “Quaking” or “Trembling” hence the name Quaking Aspen. The detail in the casting and painting by our craftsman are second none.
