　　SPRUCE PINE, N.C .- Buck Stove, maker of handcrafted wood- and gas-fueled heating products and patio and outdoor living products for more than 40 years, and in collaboration with partners Bob Timberlake Inc. and Earth Stone Products, has introduced the new Outdoor Living Collection.

　　The 22-piece collection of furniture, fire pits and accessories is made entirely of recycled materials, and is durable and easy to maintain. It includes chairs and gliders, tables, chimineas and fire pits, and gas- and wood-fired grills. Lighting and other decorative accessories add the finishing touch to the mix-and-match collection.

　　“Buck Stove outdoor living products are made to withstand the elements and can stay outside for years. Other than an occasional soap and water rinse, the furniture requires very little maintenance,” said Claudia Bailey Honeycutt, Buck Stove sales and marketing director. “We’re extremely proud that our furniture is made of 100-percent recycled material.”

　　A highlight of the collection includes rugged Adirondack-style chairs designed by Bob Timberlake, renowned American artist and home furnishings designer. Available in fan-back and bent-back styles, the chairs include rockers, gliders, swings, pub or dining seats and the traditional lounger that folds flat for easy storage.

　　A selection of dining, coffee and side tables completes the furniture line. All are constructed of “plastic lumber,” a non-porous material made from recycled milk jugs that is durable and resistant to weather and insects, and available in multiple color combinations to match any home decorating style, from traditional to rustic. Furniture prices range from $179 for an accent table, to $499 for a swing or glider, to $2,499 for a dining table that seats 10. Custom furniture is also available.

　　Buck Stove's fire pits and chimineas are handcrafted from durable steel and powder coated with high-temperature paint. The collection includes sleek, pyramid-style chimineas that burn wood or gas, and more traditional round and square fire pits available in four colors. Steel fire pit prices range from $99 to $1,299, depending on size and fuel option.

　　Also available is a granite-enclosed fire pit, created in collaboration with Bob Timberlake and Earthstone Products. In this design, Buck Stove’s steel fire pit insert is framed by reclaimed stone and pavers assembled using a dry-stack method. The granite fire pit comes in round and rectangular shapes, and wood- or gas-burning models. Cost is $499-$999.
