A company that has been manufacturing cast iron wood stoves in Norway since 1853, Jotul has been a brand that remained trusted by many through generations because of the passion for warmth, and an atmosphere of peace and harmony that every Jotul cast iron stove share with every place it calls home.
Jotul’s most popular and most imitated cast iron stove, the Jotul F 118 CB Black Bear, looks as classic as a wood stove can ever get in these modern times.
Heavy cast iron painted in a matte black finish makes this wood burning stove look like the stoves Benjamin Franklin. Its cast iron door is strewn with cast iron grills to add to its classic look. Putting the cherry on top of the proverbial cake is the cast verse from Havamal (a gnomic collection of poems that date back to the age of Vikings) on the front plate for a more historical and sophisticated touch. It burns efficiently because of Jotul’s patented clean burn technology and burns wood for a long time too.
Not only is Jotul famous for classic intricate cast iron stoves, but also for sleek modern cast iron stoves that transcends beyond tradition. A more modern take on the highly classical cast iron wood stove is the Jotul F 373. featuring glass window on 3 sides sides for perfect viewing. Modern and minimalist, looks kind of like a public telephone – a very elegant and warm public telephone. Humor aside, it certainly is one of my favorite wood burning stoves because of its sheer beauty in simplicity.
