The weather is still beautiful here in Colorado with warm sunny days, but soon enough there will be snow and cold days. Since our house is old and not insulated well it tends to get very cold in the winter time. Therefore I'm dreaming of getting one of these stoves for our living room. I picture us sitting in our living room in front of the fire place with hot cocoa after a full day skiing in the mountains...
The stove is from the Danish company, Morsø Jernstøberi A/S, and they have both traditional and more contemporary styles of cast iron stoves. I like the Morsø 7110 (pictured above) that has a very large glass panel without any interfering bars for an unobstructed view of the fire.
This is how Morsø Jernstøberi decribes this product: "Designed with Scandinavian simplicity, the Morsø 7110 sharp edges and straight lines are combined with classical American elements such as the horizontal design and distinct profiles in the top and bottom plates...On each side of the Morsø 7110 is engraved a symbol from the Viking era. In Scandinavia the symbol is known as “Saint Johannes Shield,” and it is believed to offer the household protection from all evil. This symbol appears on numerous finds from around 1,000 AD, such as the Runic Stones in Jelling that were erected around 960 AD and refers to King Harald Bluetooth, the king who brought Christianity into Denmark."
