The French Antique Stove Co are specialist suppliers to the UK and to the world of French antique wood burning and multi-fuel stoves (coal; coke; anthracite etc..) We spend a lot of our time journeying from our workshop all over France sourcing these wonderful pieces of art. We can supply most styles of antique French stoves including: art deco; art nouveau; arts & crafts; minimalist; symbolism (o
r decadence); ornate stoves from the mid to late 19th Century; the immediate post war period and even one or two ceramic tile stoves. We do not strip the stove of all its internal workings, give it a good clean, fit a bio ethanol burner and then claim a full restoration!! Each stove is carefully dismantled, cleaned, resealed and rebuilt with all parts replaced/renewed as necessary. Once finished, it will be as close to factory original as is possible. (unless otherwise stated)
Bio Ethanol We can fit a bio ethanol burner to the majority of our stoves which alleviates the need for a chimney or flue way, leaving you free to place the stove where you like!. Please note that a full restoration is carried out allowing you to return the stove to run on wood or coal as originally intended. (unless otherwise stated)
Every one of our stoves is selected with the loving care and attention a living, breathing antique deserves. It passes through our workshop where it is checked thoroughly and any necessary service parts are repaired or renewed. In most cases, the stove will undergo a full "body off" restoration. We also call on the local foundry to recast new parts and will remake new firebricks when the old ones are no longer serviceable. Our aim is to restore the stove to as close to factory original as possible. Please note however that we try to retain as much of the age patina that has built up over the years on the decorative outside of the stove. Flue pipe of the correct dimension can be ordered at the same time you order your stove. Think about an antique stove for ambiance, style and economy. Watch the smoke drift up your chimney whilst oil and petrol prices go through the roof! It makes sense: Think future! oil and petrol won't last, so go back to the past. A wood burning stove also makes ecological sense ~ burning wood gives off as much CO2 as a tree that rots & dies. Now is the time to go green!
