This
is a fantastic art deco stove coming from the early
1930's bang in the middle of the art deco movement.
It is in simply wonderful condition and is quite a
rare find.
You don’t need to have a huge drawing room to get
the benefit from this refined stove. The casting
designs on the front of the stove are exquisite. We
can’t find anything wrong with this stove apart from
the usual wear which is to be expected of any piece
like this stove that is of a certain age, and that
has been used to give heat and warmth to its
previous owners.
It was made by the well known manufacturer Deville
& Cie of Charleville in the Ardennes between
1910 and 1930, and can be found in their 1930
catalogue. This is medium sized stove, and is called
a 'poele à feu visible et continue' by the
manufacturers.
In excellent condition, and with the quality of
casting and enamelling associated with Deville. The
stove epitomises the best in Art Nouveau style and
design.
This stove is a working stove, and as such it does
have one or two small chips to the enamel, but you
have to search for them. Oasis has been fully
restored with a new set of firebricks and all worn
parts replaced.
Please note that the mica
windows have been renewed.
It is around 80-90 years old and the condition is
consistent with its age. All working
parts are in excellent condition, just connect the
flue, light the match and away you go!
This stove was designed for coal and coke burning,
it will burn wood easily too. It will run on one
charge of anthracite for 12-18 hours This is a
beautiful, unusual stove and these photos do not
really do it justice.
