J.A. Roby has captured the beautiful elegance of a bygone era in this new woodburning cookstove that comes equipped with food warmer and water tank with spigot. Decorative touches reminiscent of the Danish Rosette characterize the European inspired backsplash for a touch of elegance in your home. The pedestal base inspires a rugged feel.
Similar to the "Cicero" model that J.A. Roby also launched, but with a pedestal base, the Chief is impeccably manufactured in the tradition of J.A. Roby, with a combination of decorative steel and cast iron. Chrome handles, corners, and ornamental enhancements.
The attractive glass doors are standard on all J.A. Roby models for both the firebox and oven. The arched cast iron door makes for a charming view of the firebox so you can enjoy the flames while preparing your meals.

- Possible flow of creosote when there is a fire chimney.
The coating used for the protection must be non-combustible and approved according to UL1618 standard for the USA or to the local codes (Example: cement, brick, ceramic tiles, etc.)
