The 1899 Clermont’s curvy design grants it a certain elegance, while its especially large nickel plates reflect light and brighten any room it’s placed in. This stove has been carefully restored to its original turn-of-the-century beauty and is ready to warm your home or business.
Backstory
In the early 20th century, nestled in a cottage on the edge of the Adirondacks, the Clermont stove known as Lorraine stood proudly with her curved legs and polished flue, a graceful blend of strength and charm. Named by a young newlywed who said the stove had “hips like a dancer,” Lorraine became the center of the home—cooking stews through snowstorms and drying mittens for three generations of children. Her fire never roared; it glowed—steady, warm, and patient.
Even now, tucked in a corner of JNT Company, she seems to wait with quiet confidence, ready to be lit again, ready to turn a house into a home.
