That is a beauty, Potter!

It reminds me of some of the wood burning stoves that I saw over in Norway.

The unique arc over the firebox is designed to extract more heat out of the escaping smoke.  The same concept was used up in New England in the old one room school houses and many of the old churches.  They would have the wood burning stove, in the rear of the main room, and the actual chimney was in the front of the room.  They would run the smoke stack from the wood stove, all across the room, to the chimney, so that any heat at all, that was in the smoke, would be dissipated out into the room.  Very smart, and efficient, in my mind!

Enjoy that beauty!

Beats me,  they were produced from 1935/1985.  325 bucks is what I gave for it.

Oh...I love it!!!!!!    Tis a beautiful thing to behold.  Unless it is rusted and not workable, you got a great deal.

I have this soft spot in my heart for wood stoves.  For 13 yrs. it was the only heat I had in a 2-story house.  That beautiful black-iron baby was my life-line to not being frozen.

Every year I looked for the best deal on cords of Oak and manzanita and when I had it in my wood-pile I knew I was safe from the ravages of winter.

I even had a sign I made above the wood-pile from a poet that said...

"Every man looks at his wood-pile with a sort of affection" 

Good on you Potter for buying that.   Very unusual... with CHARACTER, just like you.  Wink

Linda likes it so much she posted twice  Grin!  It's purdy.  Don't ahve much use for one down here, it'd probably run me out of my living room.  We have a fireplace with an insert and I can't tell you the last time we used it.

   I built this room for my daughter and her husband so they could stay in college.  It's my man cave in two more years.  This is where the stove goes.

So you are actually going to use it as the maker intended and don't plan on sending it to me to mosaic?

Damn. Huh

There is a nice spot there in the arch where you can set a pan of water to humidify the room too.  I see the circles where it's been done in the past.

Pretty and very functional.
