HISTORY

This stove is a very handsome and sturdy piece of industrial design by one of the most famous French stove foundries. It first appears as a mark 1 in the 1925 catalogue.
This was an extremely popular model which can still be found in use and as decoration across France due to both it's popularity and it's sturdy construction, clever & stylish design and the very high quality of materials used.

The PLUM colour is not very common (it was more expensive to produce).  Most common models of this type were pale blue or brown.
_____
The Deville foundry began in 1846 & is very well known in France for it's inventions, being the first foundry to use enamel on cast iron stoves. Deville has a reputation for originality, style and quality.
It is still producing high-quality stoves today and was the first French manufacturer of high efficiency pellet stoves in 2004
Deville; Le Non Pareil model 1925 - 1939.
This model was first displayed in the 1925 Paris exhibition. It was developed to produce speedy heating for Parisian homes at the end of a busy working day. The quality of
casting and enamelling associated with Deville is still renound today.
The marque Deville was developed from the town of Charleville, Deville being the
leading designer of stoves like this one, and so the factory changed it’s name to just Deville. (dept:Ardennes)

Deville Today 
Can still be found in 08000 Charleville-Mézières still manufacturing fabulous (though sleek, modern and not in the same colour range) today in North eastern Ardennes, France

DESIGN

  • It has enamel extending all around the back so is perfect for a central position or set further into the room which increases the heat output.
  •  it has a turn screw air inlet and a baffle in the firebox to reduce the air flow out and encourage secondary burning of more smoke within the firebox once the stove is hot. 
  • the floor is lined with Original firebricks which both store heat and increase efficiency. 
  • The double walled construction with open latticed designs, allows hot air to flow up through the two layers and circulate through the room faster, acting as a natural fan system. 
  • Vitreous ENAMEL colour
  • Cast-Ironexterior / Steel interior firebox 
  • It has a LARGE side opening door for load fuel
