I had to ask, Fred.

Intending to wheel around a hot stove with exhaust spewing out doesn't seem like something that fits in with all the obvious thought and the tremendous amount of work it must have taken to design and build such a stove. :o

These stoves had a rear pipe damper to block the exhaust when you was rolling it from one room to another.

The most common fuel in europe then was anthracite coal briquettes and belive me, it was by far better than broken anthracite coal.

Here is how the exhaust gases travel around the fire box before they reach the pipe.
A huge difference compared with the american base burners...

If you like more photos I will be happy to take some for you! :yes:

With that rear facing exhaust outlet, the angled load door on the top, and the flat plate around the front of the stove, it looks more like a fireplace insert. A "beautiful" fire-place insert. But I'm not understanding the cut-away showing the exhaust gasses exiting, behind the built up coal bed. It appears there's some type of baffle containing the coal, that must be vented to allow the gasses to flow out. From your pictures of the inside, on page 1, it doesn't look like the same stove in the diagram.

I would think wheels were only a convenience to move the stove forward to clean the fireplace opening and chimney behind it.

This is the hole the gases travel around the fire box

I saw a similar one listed on Long Island , NY Craigslist last year for over a month. (If I remember correct $150)

If I had any idea how well they were constructed, I would have definitely made the dreaded trip out there and grabbed it.

Guess I thought it was just a really fancy charcoal heater. Looking back I should have contacted the seller for some pictures of the inside.

Great find !

Thank you Wren!

The tiles is a collection from old byzantine houses.

Extremely cheap I think...
Here, most of these stoves, in good shape with very good grates, cost more than 900 euro.

Flue in every room or big space was very common in France years ago.

My stove is slightly different from this in the diagram (different doors)
And yes, it is a fireplace insert "A FEU VISIBLE E CONTINU" with visible and continious fire.

Does anybody knows what type of refractory gasket is this?
It is soft like foam.
