Champion No. 118 and Alcalde
Each antique stove is unique and individual. They all have a lot of history behind them. "If they could only talk!"
Here are a few of the stoves we've restored, in their new homes.
Radiant Home No. 60
Made by Fuller and Warren of Troy, NY, the owners of this gorgeous large oak stove initially rescued it from their family cabin in the Adirondacks, then brought to us here in N. Carolina for a full restoration. They then brought it back to their beautiful home in Pennsylvania, and soon, they will headed to Texas, where it will be hooked up and ready to glow through those big mica windows. This stove can travel! Stay tuned for an update from Dallas : )
This is the first time the Florence was fired up since being restored. -And maybe the first time in over 50 years or more! This mountain home, with a view of Grandfather Mountain, is being restored, too!

Betty gets a good amount of use in her beautiful new home, for breakfast, biscuits, pies, and dinner, too. Also, in the colder weather she warms up the upstairs of the house as well.

The New Globe Hot Blast found its perfect home high in the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee. (it gets cold there!)
And the Garland 200E, a very historic oak stove, found its way there, too.
The Garland has a very special significance to its new owner, as he worked with the newer Garland restaurant stoves extensively in his career as a chef.
Not many of the original Garland Oak heaters are anywhere to be found. This one surely found its right place!
