"Le Petit Godin"
This is a great
opportunity to own
an early example of a
popular multi-fuel
stove, made by the
superb and well
known manufacturer Godin who has been
around since 1840.
The
cast iron castings
are enamelled in
black as are the lid
and "Godin" badge. It has
a cylindrical body
on three claw feet,
with a decoratively
cast door faced with
mica. It is about
4-5kw in power and
can burn practically
every sort of
combustible
imaginable, however
it is more of a
coal/coke stove than
a wood stove. Fuel
is loaded from the
top. Lift the enamel
lid and there's
another lid that can
be used for cooking.
Open the inner lid
and load the fuel.
Once the fire is
established, add
more wood or coal.
It is superb
condition for its
age - estimated at
the dawn of the
20th century, and is
ready to use. This Godin is simply
outstanding, and
these photos do not
really do it
justice.
Black enamel flue
pipe of the correct
dimension can be
supplied if
necessary, please
note your
requirement at the
time of ordering.
The dimensions are:
76cms (30”)H x 41cms
(16") in diameter
and the flue size is
8.3cms (3¾”) and is
68cms from the
floor.
