Le Petit Godin

by Godin

Smaller "Le Petit Godin"
This is a great opportunity to own an early, slightly smaller example of a popular multi-fuel stove, made by the superb and well known manufacturer Godin who has been around since 1840.

The cast iron castings are enamelled in black and the lid and "Godin" badge are finished in chrome, which is a first for us. It has a cylindrical body on three claw feet, with a decoratively cast door faced with mica. It is about 3-4kw in power and can burn practically every sort of combustible imaginable, however it is more of a coal/coke stove than a wood stove. Fuel is loaded from the top. Lift the enamel lid and there's another lid that can be used for cooking. Open the inner lid and load the fuel. Once the fire is established, add more wood or coal. 
It is superb condition for its age - estimated at the middle of the 20th century, and is ready to use. This Godin is simply outstanding, and these photos do not really do it justice. Please note that the little ash collector which hooks on below the door is not there. This was, at the time of manufacture, an optiontional extra. This does not affect the use of the stove in any way.

Black enamel flue pipe of the correct dimension can be supplied if necessary, please note your requirement at the time of ordering.
