The highlights of a contemporary wood stoves collection

There has been quite a bit of fuss in the press recently about one of the UK’s old and well known fire place and wood burning stoves manufacturers. The company, which has had its contemporary wood stoves collection endorsed by no less than the nation’s premier national trust – the eponymous trust is lending its name and badge to the designs of the new wood stoves in recognition to both of their energy saving capabilities and their classic looks – is turning heads in homes all over the country thanks to its fusion of classical appearances with contemporary themes. The excellent models with great characteristics have been featured on its web site, including the items run down here. Two of the most arresting looking stoves in the collection have been designed to sit actually inside the walls of the room that they heat. As such, the natural flame that is contained behind the fire proof door and window of the wood burning stove becomes a piece of dancing, warming art: a painting that is as much a part of a contemporary art collection as it is of a contemporary wood stoves collection. In both cases the absence of a traditional fire place is no problem – the whole flue and piping system of the stove is simply run through the walls in the modern fashion. Giving a landscape view of dancing flames, but completely safe behind industry standard fire proof glass, these two stoves alone are evidence enough of the unique design capability of this firm. Other favourites include a free standing stove with a variety of enamelled finishes, making for a bright centre piece to any fire place, hearth or even kitchen area. The bright colours of the enamel make these parts of the contemporary wood stoves collection suitable for even modern rooms: the generous bulbous lines of the stove, combined with the bright colouring and 50s style lettering on its door, make it the ideal retro item for every funky flat or fashion conscious condo. There are some genuine old school inspirations in the collection too. Some of the stoves (which are available in a variety of cast iron finishes, including an enamelled white that goes marvellously with Georgian and Edwardian interiors) have older styled lines, fittings and doors – making them wonderful additions to converted barns, farm houses, older town houses and country houses. The contemporary wood stoves collection, by including these models, ensures that the home owner with more classical tastes is not overlooked in the race to bring down energy consumption. For comfort, good looks and convenience there can be no matching this one – which, like most of the stoves in the contemporary wood stoves collection, is available in several different kilowatt ratings. The versatility of the ratings ensures that with every single model and variation on the wood burning stoves theme, the home owner is able to choose the model that gives out the right amount of heat for the dimensions of his or her room.
