Nice looking stove!
Tough to tell from that angle but it looks like an ash pan area below the firebox, so maybe???

It looks like there is an ash door below the window door. Do you know:
1. if there is an ash pan in that area
2. Are there movable metal grates for the fire to sit on?

I only have these two photos. I haven't seen it in person yet. But, if you click the second pic and then click on the photo where the words are on the ash pan it will magnify and it says wood only.....??? !

I cannot tell from the photos if it will burn coal or not but if you have to collect this lovely stove in person,take plenty of help.......heavy. Good luck, stove looks great!

It is a woodburner, get a real coal unit or stick with wood, that thing will break your heart on coal.

it looks like the words USE WOOD ONLY and the words DO NOT USE COAL set into the cast iron at the bottom of the stove when you blow up the photo with the stove straight on.
