Love the Griffins on this stove......It's a large baseburner.....stands around 6 feet tall. We've got a cauldron in it for flame effect also.

She's a purty one--I have noticed that most all the fancy base-burners are real similar in looks & performance no matter who made them??

Another beautiful stove. This one could heat a very large home with little effort.

I would not be able to "look" at the stove without using it and observing the real beauty of these masterpieces, which was how well they actually did their job.
It's a bit like the collectors of old guitars who buy up the old beauties, never play them and display them on a wall. Maybe I'm missing something, but the real beauty is in the listening. Just MHO though. Thanks for sharing the pix.

What a beauty. A smaller version of it would look real nice on my hearth. Just having the nickel replated on one would probaby cost more than my stove did new, but worth every penny of it.

Soooo, we're all in agreement, the stoves do duplicate one another,except for an occasional extra or lacking of glitz. Don't get me wrong, they're all real pretty & seem to work real well for you guys. Just was curious

William has really stimulated interest in the old stoves. A lot of the old stoves have been acquired because of him. He is a true believer in our foundry fathers. I even picked up an old oak stove in large part because of him.The-stove-collector wrote:Steve you sound just like William....I used to hear those lectures all the time on the old Myantiquestove website!! lol

I agree that I would have to atleast use the stove as it was made for durring a period of time to see how it worked, the real beauty would certainly shine through then. I don't make a good collector I guess .
Another very nice stove you have there.

Yep shame about that site getting shut down! Lots of good folks over there and certainly a wealth of info, parts, and gorgeous pieces! At least when the oil or gas, whatever runs out or becomes cost prohibitive for you, you'll have a fantastic choice of heaters!
