Vented Coal Baskets simulate the effect of a more subtle real coal fire;
reminiscent of a simpler more elegant time in our history.
The coals in
the basket actually glow as they're warmed by the natural gas or
propane burner, the flame pattern is larger than vent-free, to provide a
realistic, appealing effect.
The Coal Baskets were first imported but soon
the need for CSA certified gas coal grates for the US and
Canadian markets made American production for the Vent Free
Coal baskets necessary for this Atlanta based family
business.
Searching for antique grates and surrounds to be reproduced
exclusively for their Coal Baskets, the company began to
put together a product line of decorative, beautiful grates and
accessories.
The company is currently operated by the Craven family out of
Historic Washington, Georgia.
The fireplace has long been regarded as the focal
point for any home, and in the late 1800's, coal fires were
the height of fashion.
Even when
not burning, the decorative cast iron basket still look great in
your fireplace!
Gas coal fires are found in the finest homes in Great Britain,
the US and Canada as well as in centuries old Public Houses,
Castles and Palaces. They are easy to install and can be taken
with you should you decide to move.
