Modern-day Prometheus
Greek mythology says that Prometheus stole fire from the gods. The gods got mad at him for bringing it to man as that makes man equal to the gods. Having discovered fire, man survived the wilderness. The image of a family huddling together around a warming stove is the epitome of domestic cosiness and security. The Jotul 373 wood burning stove is purist and functional in its. The stove can stand almost anywhere in the room and thus creates a new living room quality. It has unique precision in the cast iron, and can be operated from all sides. The wood burning stove can also be rotated 360 degrees when it is fitted with a flue outlet at the top and with a turntable. In order to adapt to a variety of different interiors, the basic models of the three stoves in this range can be fitted individually and combined with a variety of leg sets. The stoves can also be fitted with an additional glass front panel that lowers the surface temperature on the front. Another unique and well-conceived feature is the decorative panels for the side windows. The panels protect walls and furniture from direct radiant heat and create evocative shadow figures on the walls. In order to give the experience of true open fire, the wood-burning stove has been designed with large glass sides – giving a direct view on the elementary play of the flames.
This would be perfect for a family living in a contemporary home and refuses to be left behind by time, and yet, want to to keep the tradition on family bonding.
